Japchae

 Hello everyone. :-) Today dish is jap-chae. 
 Do you know Jap-chae? Jap-chae is a Korean dish made from sweet potato noodles (called dangmyeon), stir fried in sesame oil with various vegetables (typically thinly sliced carrots, onion, spinach, and mushrooms), sometimes served with beef, and flavoured with soy sauce, and sweetened with sugar. It is usually served garnished with sesame seeds and slivers of chili. It may be served either hot or cold. (From Wikipedia). This dish is served at Korean parties and special occasions with seasonal vegetables added. Jap-chae are many varieties. Gochu jap-chae (made with pepper), Kongnamul jap-chae(made with soybean sprouts) and so on...... I'm cooking a basic jap-chae.

Following the bulgogi, the first time I'm cooking Japchae.

1. I'll soak Dangmyeon in water.

2. Cut carrot, mushroom and onion. And carrots, mushrooms and onion roast at low heat.

3. Spinach boiled in water. And I put seasoned salt and garlic. Cut the easy-to-eat spinach. Because large spinach is difficult to eat.

4. Long cut, the meat is seasoned with soy sauce and pepper. And I bake the flesh.

5. Dangmeyon boiled in water about 8 minute.

6. Mix all the ingredients.

7. I put soy sauce and sesame oil here.

Today dish is Bulgogi. Bulgogi is a Korean dish that usually consists of grilled marinated beef. Bulgogi is most famous Korean food. There are many bulgogi restaurants abroad. Jessica Alba was also posted to Twitter a few years ago for bulgogi. I quite liked the food. To eat a hamburger, I only eat bulgogi burger. But, in fact, It's the first time to cook Bulgogi. I always go to a restaurant to eat. So, I was worried that there is no taste of Bulgogi. My recipe may be so very funny. Keep in mind that I try to bulgogi for the first time.

 

Now, I'll introduce material.

The most important meat. I used the meat of pig paw. It is low in fat for that part. And Onions, mushrooms, minced garlic, sesame leaves is required. Also, due to the delicious seasoning, soy sauce, red pepper paste and sugar is required, The sauce can buy at grocery stores. However, I will that at home.

 

Now, I'll start cooking.

1. Seasoning is important. Seasoning soy sauce, red pepper paste, 2 tablespoons. And sugar, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon. Put a little sesame oil. A lot of onion slices.

2. I put the onion and seasoning mix into meat.

3. Ripen in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

4. I put the fried mushrooms and sesame leaves when you fry the meat.

5. Cooking was completed.

 

I can make the delicious bulgogi. Next, I'll make more delicious bulgogi.

 

TIP> 
1. Fried rice to eat bulgogi sauce is optional.

2. Beef bulgogi is more delicious than pig meat bulgogi.

3. Put the squid bulgogi, this is called osam-bulgogi.

4. People also make a Bulgogi Jeongol. Jeongol is a traditional Korean dish made by stewing bite-sized pieces of beef, pork, or seafood along with seasonings, vegetables, and mushrooms in a pot at the table. But bulgogi jeongol is very difficult to me.
