I love yukhoe, and so does my husband, so we make it from time to time. However, because we have different calorie allowances, I usually enjoy the yukhoe by itself while giving my husband some extra carbs. So I thought, why not turn this yukhoe […]
Dinner
10 minutes Calorie friendly YUKHOE (육회, Korean beef tartare)
Low calories Dry Hotpot with Roasted Bean Powder Sauce✨ (Macro friendly!)
I craved dry hotpot the other day, so I made this, and it hit the spot at just the right time. I love Chinese sesame paste (芝麻酱) so much, but I know it’s not very calorie-friendly, which means I can’t have a lot of it. […]
High protein 5-minutes Chicken Tofu Snack
This is one of my favourite lazy meals when I’m on a calorie deficit. It takes just 5 minutes to make, is packed with protein, and keeps me feeling full with barely any cooking. I especially love this combo when I’m close to my period! […]
High protein Bulgogi Kimbap
Kimbap is one of the most nostalgic foods for Koreans. The problem is, it takes quite a bit of time and effort to make. Whenever I make kimbap, I feel like I need to make at least 10 rolls to make all that preparation worth […]
Crispy bulgogi (바싹 불고기)
There are so many ways to make bulgogi, but this is one of my favourite versions. If you make bulgogi without vegetables (or just add a small amount at the very end), you’ll get this beautiful caramelisation on the meat. Just make sure to cook […]
Low carbs Chinese style Fried Rice
I’m not a Chinese dish expert, but this is how I make it whenever I’m craving fried rice! I know traditional fried rice is usually cooked with quite a lot of oil, but this version still turns out great with much less oil as long […]
Bean sprout Bulgogi (차돌 숙주 볶음)
This is one of my favourite drinking snacks in Korea, known as 차돌숙주볶음 (Chadol Sukju Bokkeum). 차돌 (Chadol) means beef brisket, 숙주 (Sukju) means bean sprout, and 볶음 (Bokkeum) means stir-fry. But trust me, it’s not just a bar snack — it also makes a […]
Prawn Yaki Udon
I’m not the biggest fan of yaki udon, mostly because I’m not a huge fan of dishes that use a lot of oil! But if yaki udon is made this way, I could honestly eat it every day. It’s high in protein, macro-friendly, and easy […]
High Protein Gochujang Rose pasta
This is my husband’s all-time “yes” pasta. Every single time I ask him what to make for meal prep — and I mean every single time — the answer is always pasta. So today, I’m finally giving him exactly what he wants: Gochujang Rose Pasta. […]
