Korean Dak Juk (Chicken Porridge)Though I have tried to avoid getting too personal on the blog, I must admit that this recipe has a bitter-sweet story behind it [sigh]. We are still experiencing record-breaking heat here in the Midwest (100+ weather!), and this is supposed to be the last day of the heat wave according recent weather experts. For some reason, the… |

Naan (Indian Flatbread)When I lived in LA, there was a food court at Century City where a lady served the best Indian food I've ever had. I especially loved her naan bread with cilantro chutney. This recipe is an attempt to recreate her recipe, and it turned out really tasty, but not the same as hers. So, I am going to experiment with it using all… |

Korean Gaeran Mari (Stuffed Egg Omelette w Cheese)The wife is usually in charge of this Korean appetizer dish called gaeran mari (stuffed egg omelette) because it takes some finesse (which I lack) and real cooking skills to roll the omelette at the right time. So far, I have failed incredibly two times, simply because I started flipping/curling too early and it broke to… |

Super Skinny Sweet and Sour ChickenThis sweet and sour chicken taste sensational. It’s so much healthier than take-out and my family thinks it taste amazingly better! Although this dish is usually made with breaded, fried chicken, to make it healthy, I’m using chicken breasts chunks, adding more vegetables and pineapple plus serving over brown rice. The skinny for each… |

Korean Extra Crispy Fried Chicken w Sweet Spicy GlazeHere is yet another Korean fried chicken recipe that we made recently with a sweet & spicy glaze. We have been yearning for something hot and spicy and we finally got it. The extra heat came from using Thai chili peppers (aka Bird's eye chili peppers) that we found at the local Asian market. These cute, little peppers are quite… |

Fried Rice with CauliflowerI recently read this blog post about using sauteed, grated cauliflower as a healthier alternative to rice or couscous. I was intrigued because I absolutely love cauliflower and had never thought of grating it. However, I also like carbs with my meals, so I tried the technique for the first time in fried rice using a mix of half brown… |
