My cooking success!
Tonight, I attempted my first ever Korean dish, its the Korean Spicy Chicken and Potato (Tak Toritang). It was very tasty and so easy to make!
Here is a list of the ingredients:
4 chicken thighs
2-3 potatoes
2-3 carrots
1 onion
ginger
garlic
3 tablespoons of hot pepper paste (guchojang)
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
a splash of sesame oil
1 teaspoon of sugar
Around 60mls of water
Chop potatoes, carrots, onion into large chunks. Skin the thighs and slice flat and debone. Pan fry the thighs, ginger and garlic in vegetable oil over a medium heat till slight brown, then stir in the potatoes, onions, carrots. Add the hot pepper paste, light soy, sugar. Give it a gentle stir, then add water. Cook on a low heat for around 20 mins. The meat should be tender and the vegetables soft. Add the sesame oil just before dishing up.
Easy eh?! Yeah, it doesn't take much effort really! I will find more dishes to cook no matter the kind of cuisine, just want to cook more! :P Tonight's dinner was lovely!

Hot hot hot!
There is a reason for the title above, let me explain.
First, Hot. The weather today is 27C and very sunny and hot. It makes a change really because recently it has been raining a lot in London.
Second, Hot. I have just been to Costa Coffee. Our team sat outside and whilst other others were under the shade, I was baking my arms, now they feel like a freshly baked lobster! I had an ice cold americano and a slice of lemon cake...lovely! We chatted about this and that and I generally dreamdazed at my surroundings and was tempted to just 'accidently' hop on the bus home!
Third, Hot. Me and hubby decided to cook'dak gochujang bulgogi' (Korean Spicy Chicken) tonight for dinner. This is a spicy chicken with potatoes stewed with gochujang sauce. We have yet bought the sauce but hopefully we are going to get some from our local korean food shop. They sell already marinated tasty meats, like bulgogi chicken, pork and beef ribs. I think I will cook some korean rice to accompany this dish. Spicy hot food in hot weather, sounds so fasinating (We' shall see!).
