It’s been a long time since I last celebrated Lunar New Year — ever since I moved to Australia. So this year, I made mandu with Lee’s family to celebrate it the Korean way. It was so much fun making mandu together. We had a […]
Soup
Low cal Hearty Chicken Corn soup
Chicken and corn are a combination you simply can’t resist. Together, they make the soup incredibly hearty and comforting. Deboning cooked chicken drumsticks does take a bit of effort, but for soup, I can’t give up the deep umami flavour that the bones create. Instead […]
High protein Potato soup perfect for cutting (with minced beef!)
If you’re looking for a high-volume soup that’s perfect for cutting, this is another creamy, high-protein, low-fat option that feels really comforting and satisfying. It pairs perfectly with toasted bread, so I highly recommend enjoying it with a hot bowl of soup if you have […]
Japanese curry (8 serving recipe)
This is probably one of the best options for you. Yes, you. People who do not eat many vegetables and do not always pay close attention to their diet. It is incredibly convenient because you can make as much as you want. Today, I made […]
Macro friendly Hainanese chicken
Hainanese chicken is one of the best inventions of humanity. And It was a pretty exotic dish for me. butabsolutely sensational when I tried it for the first time. I had never seen anything like this in Korea. It looks very simple, but the flavour […]
High protein Ochazuke 🍵

Korean beef bone soup with beef tendon and oxtail (스지곰탕)
Did you ever experience craving a very specific food before your period? This time, it was Korean beef tendon soup, called 스지곰탕 (seujigontang), and I wanted it so badly. It is a clear soup made with beef bones and beef tendon. It is high in […]
Wombok beef soybean stew (소고기 배추 된장국)
Wombok looks so great these days, so I bought one but didn’t know what to make with it. That’s how this recipe came to life. Wombok is a popular ingredient in Korean soybean paste soup, which we call Baechu Doenjang Guk (배추된장국). I actually didn’t […]
🥩 Beef, Clam and Oyster Miyeokguk (Korean Seaweed Soup)
I made beef Miyeokguk with oyster and clam for Lee’s birthday this year, because I remembered how good my mum’s oyster Miyeokguk was in Korea. But this time, the broth turned a bit tangy and sour because of the oyster(not sure why….?). It is completely […]
