Simple and quick Korean recipes to whip up in your kitchen.

Known for its bold flavours, Korean food has a balance of sweet, spicy, sour and umami notes. All of this combines to create this collection of speedy, yet incredibly tasty Korean dishes using all the classic Korean ingredients such as gochujang, kimchi and sesame. Enjoy recipes such as Tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes) or Kimchi Grilled Cheese, then move on to dishes like Dak Gotchi (Soy Glazed Chicken Skewers), Kongnamul Guk (Beansprout Soup) and Kimchi and Bacon Fried Rice. Veg recipes include Sticky Chilli Tofu, and not forgetting the all-important Kimchi, Pickles & Sides. Finish your induction to super easy Korean recipes with recipes such as Bingsu (Strawberry Shaved Ice).
