김치 라면, Kimchi RaMyeon
Posted by Aeri Lee on May 12, 2008
Kimchi Ramyeon is one way to cook delicious Korean instant noodles. There are many different kinds of Korean instant noodles in the Korean or Asian store. Most Korean instant noodles have more flavor and they are spicier than American instant noodles. Adding kimchi gives even more flavor and makes it spicier. I love kimchi ramyeon. However, it is not very healthy, so I recommend not eating this delicious food too often. 
I know it is not easy to avoid this temptation. hehe … I hope you will try this someday. 
Yield: 1 Serving

매운 어묵 볶음, MaeUn EoMuk BokkEum
Posted by Aeri Lee on May 12, 2008
EoMuk Bbokkeum is a Korean side dish. EoMuk means fish cake and Bokkeum means fried. In the past, most Korean students brought their own lunch box to school everyday since schools didn’t have a cafeteria like they do nowadays. EoMuk bokkeum was a common side dish for our lunch box, and because of that, it brings back memories of my school days. It is also a common side dish for homemade meals. If you like spicy food you can add more red pepper powder. Keep this side dish in the refrigerator and serve it with rice. I hope you enjoy this food. *^^*

Buchu Jeon is a popular Korean snack. Sometimes Koreans like to eat jeon (pancakes) on rainy days because it is a simple and quick snack to make without going out in the rain. Many Koreans believe that garlic chives helps fight colds and it makes the stomach strong. If you can’t find jeon flour (Korean pancake mix), then you can use normal flour with the addition of one egg.
