Bulgogi Rouladen

As promised last week when I made kimchi, I came up with a radical new dish that uses it.  I am taking liberties with my earlier Rouladen recipe by marinating some thin beef round steak in bulgogi marinade that will be wrapped around the kimchi and then seared. Served simply with steamed rice, more kimchi, and green onions as a garnish, I want this rouladen to be the star.  Are you ready for a German/Korean fusion dish? I am… so let’s get cooking!   Save Print Bulgogi Rouladen Prep time:  20 mins Cook time:  15 mins Total time:  35 mins Serves: 1   Ingredients 1 6oz thinly sliced beef round steak, approximately ¼ inch thick 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp…

Chicken Kimchi Fried Rice

Fried rice… one of my favorite dishes. There are so many ways to make this easy and delicious dish. Tonight, I am going simple with a quick chicken kimchi fried rice. I added some stir fried vegetables to the recipe because we should all be eating our vegetables, right? This recipe makes a very healthy portion so you may end up with some leftovers. But don’t worry because if you do, this fried rice is delicious the next day. One tip for those of you buying kimchi for the first time… open the jar slowly over the sink. The kimchi is fermented and can bubble over so you don’t want to make a mess in the kitchen (well, more of a mess…

Prawn Kimchi Fried Rice

When all that menu planning I discussed in an earlier post gets sidetracked, it is time to improvise. Today I was surveying the refrigerator and found the following items: about 1 cup of kimchi 1 carrot 3 green onions 1 red pepper 2 heads of broccoli Hmmm, that looks like the ingredients for a tasty fried rice.  I checked in the freezer and I had a partial bag of medium (51-60) prawns – perfect as the protein in my fried rice plan. So let’s get cooking, shall we? Prawn Kimchi Fried Rice Ingredients: 24 medium prawns (51-60 size), thawed, deveined, peeled and tails removed 3/4 – 1 cup of kimchi, cut into 3/4 inch 1 carrot, sliced diagonally or julienned 3 green…

It’s 90 degrees out, I’m grilling tonight!

With some of the hottest days of the year this week, let’s face it – no one wants to be inside cooking dinner. So tonight, it is hamburgers on the barbecue.  But not just a boring or everyday hamburger, this one has pizzazz!  Introducing the kimchi cheeseburger!!!   Just think of how perfect this burger is.  No lettuce, no pickles, no onion – but all those flavor aspects are there in the kimchi.  And this is a quick dinner to make. While the grill was getting warmed up, I seasoned the ground beef patties, prepared the kimchi with my kitchen shears, and spread mayo on the buns for tasty toasting.
