Korean Cuisine!


Happy New Year to you! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's!

Perhaps it was the fact that I have started watching some Korean series again, but the first weekend I was back in Perth, I had a Korean cooking craving!!!

I love the Korean pancakes - and the little Korean restaurant on Barrack St, in Perth does it so well! It must be the best I have tasted. Anyway, I just bought the pancake mixture from the Chinese shop. But they ran out of the Korean one, so I had to make do with the Japanese mixture. It tasted pretty much the same, except it had a bit more of a dashi flavour to it. Everything was in Japanese. so I had to just guess how much water to put in!


Seasoned bean sprouts - chilled.


Tofu and Vegetable Bean Paste Stew - but I added in extra ingredients like seafood and seaweed. YUMMY!!!



I love this Korean vermicilli (spelling?!) - it is a bit thicker than the chinese one, and it has more of a chew to it. It doesnt break as easily as well! Lightly stir fried with minced beef and chinese vegetables.

Bibimbap
korean hot pepper chicken, fried egg (slightly runny inside) with the seasoned bean sprouts and slices of cucumber! Yummy!
Wishing you an awesome 2009!!! Have fun!!! :)

Oh yeah, there is a korean drama that is about cooking. It is called "Gourmet". I think you will like it. I have watched the first two episodes online, it is interesting. But then, I don't know where to get the ones that has english subs.
