Today, I want to share one of my favorite childhood sides called GimJaBan BokkEum (김자반 볶음). Are you familiar with the Korean seasoned and roasted dried laver snack? It is very popular side for Korean kids. Instead of buying pre-made ones, you can cook it healthy and tasty at home in few minutes. Our boys love it when I mixed it with some rice and make rice balls for them. Try it someday for your children or yourself.

This summer, my family traveled to Korea and made many good memories there. Among them, personally, I really enjoyed making kimchi with my mom and I finally got her kimchi recipe to share with you. In my opinion, she makes the best kimchi ever. I wrote down her recipe with an exact amount of each ingredient, which made my mom a little frustrated because Korean mothers do not usually cook with a recipe, instead, they cook with their instinct. So, it is often hard to get the same result as them without careful measurements. Anyway, today I feel happy that I can share this treasure with you. So let’s get started.

Hi everyone! Recently, I tried a unique Korean side that my Korean church friend made and I fell in love with it right away. It was so good, I thought to share the recipe with you. I learned how to make it from my friend, and today I’m going to share the recipe with you. It is made with walnuts, peanuts, and beef, along with a Korean style sauce that is sweet and savory. I know there are Korean side-dishes made with peanuts, walnuts, and beef, but I’ve never tried one that combine all of them together. lol The result was beyond my expectation. So, let’s get started.

When you think of cucumbers, what kinds of food do you think about first? We might think about a salad with fresh, crispy cucumbers. Or maybe you thought of sweet and sour cucumber pickles. Did anybody think about fried cucumbers? When I first heard the name “stir-fried cucumbers,” it was totally new to me and sounded a little strange. However, once I made a Korean cucumber stir-fry dish, I was attracted by the taste and unique texture. So, I will share my tasty recipe with you today. I’m going to use this cucumber side dish for my lunch box post next, so check it out too. 🙂
