So I thought I'd share five of my favourite easy Korean recipes which you can easily recreate at home. Happy cooking!
1. Kimchi Fried Rice (Kimchi bokkeumbap)
Kimchi fried rice, also known as kimchi bokkeumbap is a popular dish from South Korea. The primary ingredients are mature kimchi and rice, along with other available ingredients such as diced vegetables or meat. Mature kimchi is used as it gives more flavour and body to the dish as opposed to freshly made kimchi. This is an extremely tasty dish you can prepare in under 30 minutes.
2. Beef bulgogi
Bulgogi is made from thin slices of sirloin or other prime cuts of beef. The meat is then marinated for at least 30 minutes in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, pepper and pureed pear to enhance its flavour and tenderness. You can also add in some sliced oyster mushrooms, onions and scallions.
Once cooked, this tender beef is served with a side of lettuce to wrap the meat in, along with a dab of ssamjang and eaten together.

Stir fried kimchi pork is also known as jaeyook bokkeum (the Korean version) or buta kimchi (the Japanese version). First, marinate the pork loin with sesame oil and ginger wine, then it is simply stir fried along wit kimchi as well as some kimchi juice.

The pancake is made with a mixture of plain flour, water, sugar and doenjang, a Korean soybean paste. Cook until the pancake is golden brown and crisp and serve with a tangy, savoury dipping sauce.
