Today, I will share one of the menus I used for the lunch boxes, which is a hotdog Kimbap with fried egg and lettuce. It is colorful and tasty, so our boys love it.

Hi, everybody! Today, I would love to share with you an extremely tasty recipe made with mainly rice, eggs, and crab sticks. It’s simple, right? This fairly simple meal can fill you in one serving, if you are in a hurry. We are all sometimes in that type of situation. This, in Korean, is called 크래미 볶음밥 (CeuRaeMi BokkEumBap).

This dish is a crispy, slightly hot, extremely delicious meal that can be amazingly well served at parties or family gatherings. Normally, people would use chicken with this sauce, called dakgangjang, (a.k.a 닭강정, is a very popular dish in South Korea) but for vegetarians and vegans, tofu is a very good replacement. I highly recommend tofu and chicken because (for vegans and others) tofu is a great, nutritious replacement that can’t really be beaten by other meats. As for the chicken, it’s up to you, but many people enjoy it with chicken. So, try out this recipe, and I hope you like it. See you in the video!
