Just let me cook… Frying Dutchmen

June 6, 2011 in Just let me Cook by Jelmer van der Land

Frying Dutchmen In the Netherlands we are fond of deep frying all kinds of processed meat, strangely shaped potatoes and spring rolls. Every 500 metres there is a ‘Snackbar’ were you can buy these snacks. You can also make it yourself very, very easily. This is the main reason why students and people who can’t cook love the frying pan. First of all you need a frying pan or just a ordinary pot which you can fill with frying oil or just olive oil. The kind of oil you use has influence on the taste and fatness of the food. [...]

Just let me cook.. Spicy Chicken Stew

May 13, 2011 in Just let me Cook by Youngin Kim

In the name of the dish, “Daak” means a chicken in Korean and the rest of it means boiled/stir-fry cuisine or a stew. This cuisine goes best with a bowl of hot rice, and many people like to have it with Korean popular alcohol “Soju”. (Soju looks and tastes somewhat like Vodka but much milder than Vodka, only 20% of alcohol.) This is a spicy dish. Even some Korean says it’s too hot. So if you’re not familiar with [...]

Just let me cook… Beef Bulgogi

May 11, 2011 in Just let me Cook by Youngin Kim

“Bul-Go-Gi” is the most popular and beloved Korean food among foreigners. It is also called “Korean BBQ” or “Korean teriyaki beef” in English. This dish has a mild (not spicy) and sweet flavor along with soy sauce taste and it is such a nice combination with a bowl of rice. Not only in foreign countries but also in Korea itself, Bulgogi is quite an expensive food. However, you can make this fancy dish very easily, if you have one special sauce. It’s called “Korean Beef BBQ Sauce” (See the second photo of a slideshow above). You can buy it at [...]
