My lunch today is Korean Curry.
This is what we used today. We just got out frozen vegetables and some beef we had. Cook them first in the pot. Then mix curry with water and add them into the cooked veggies. You control how thick you want your curry to be with water. And boil it. And enjoy with kimchi or danmooji. I'm eating with danmooji today. Enjoy!

I love eating noodles, pastas, ramyuns...oooo and ramyun is the quickest thing you can cook.
Perfect for the lazy afternoons. I wanted something spicy and sweet but didn't want to eat the hot noodle soup like last time, so I decided to play with this differently (I rarely cook ramyun plain. What's the fun in that?...ha ha).

Here's the quick banchan to try...you just need couple eggs, flour, and tofu.
It's basically the same steps with Hobak/Zucchini Jun but just use Tofu.
You can make both of them at the same time and you get 2 banchan. If you made too much at once, you can always save them and heat it up again. That's what we did for couple days.
They are easy to make, healthy, and yummy~!! Hope you like it as much as I do.
So shall we start?

This is one of the easy recipes for Banchan. If you like crunchy fresh cucumber, this will be perfect banchan for you.
Unlike Quick ‘n Easy Korean Banchan(sidedish)-Fresh Spicy Cucumber Salad Recipe which only uses the flesh part of cucumber (no seeds, no skin), this sidedish just uses the whole cucumber like other regular salads.

Don't know how to store Kimchi that you just made?
Save those pickle jars like the one I found on eBay! The bigger the better! Those are the perfect types of jars to store kimchi. We usually use the gallon ones but feel free to use smaller ones if you make smaller amount.

Popeye eats spinach straight out of can. I prefer fresh ones...heh heh...or just cooked fresh...you know what I mean.
Once a friend told me she ate a very healthy meal...spinach salad. Yes that's good but let me show you an alternative way...Asian way...of eating spinach, as a Banchan/Sidedish with rice. I think that's little more filling than just a salad heh heh.
Just slightly cook and mix with sesame oil and salt and you are done!
Okay..okay...I'll be little more specific...scroll down!

A bowl of steaming hot soup during cold winter, especially this year, sounds so good! I LOVE soup just for the taste, but it happens to have some health benefits too!
Soybean sprouts are known to have 'isoflavone' which is beneficial for women near menopause. Also it's known within Koreans to help hangovers after heavy drinking by breaking down alcohol. So maybe next time you wanna try the Korean way to ease your hangover LOL.
Many Koreans are known to be heavy drinkers (not including me LOL) and they eat many different kinds of soup to relieve hangovers. Some spicy and some clear soup like what I am going to share today. This clear sprouts soup that I'm going to share is one of the popular ones.
However, you don't have to be a heavy drinker to enjoy this soup. I love to eat rice and this soup with Kimchi. Simple but tasty meal and healthy too!
Let's Start!

I begged my mom for something fried dripping with spicy (yet sweet) sauce. Mmmmmmm...My mom, Young, got out the deep fryer (highly recommended when deep frying) and with Costco's individually packed wings....(we really like how they packaged it all separately in small servings)...she cooked me a wonderful spicy Korean wings.
This kind of wings can also be called Yangnyum Dak. Yangnyum means sauce or marinade and Dak means chicken. Oh and if you don't want any sauce or want the sauce on the side just skip the last step and regular fried wings will be good as it is too! It's not hard at all (except for the frying part). Don't really like to be near hot oil. So shall we start?
