Fish cake BokkEum is a non-spicy side dish. Fish cake side dishes are popular in Korean lunch boxes. This food reminds me of my school lunches. Oh, I miss my mom’s food again.

JangJoRim (장조림) is a Korean side dish using mainly beef and soy sauce. You can also use pork, chicken, or even mushrooms (vegetarians can skip the eggs too) instead of beef. Once you cook this, you can keep it in the refrigerator and serve it with other Korean side dishes for your meal. Usually we use quail’s eggs for this dish, but if you cannot find them in the store, like me, you can just use chicken eggs instead.
