Al,
Thanks. I felt the thread title was more exciting than "Post some pics of random stuff you cooked." Looking forward to some tasty korean dishes!

Diablo,
Here are a couple of tasty Korean dishes I cooked recently...
Last night:
Kimchee Chigae ("chigae" basically means stew):
I browned fatty pork, deglazed with chicken stock, added sour kimchee, two cloves of crushed garlic, three chopped green onions, more chicken stock, salt, and pepper. Brought to a boil, reduced temperature and added cubed firm tofu. Cook covered for about 30 minutes. Served with steamed rice.
Here is one from a bit ago:
Dwaeji bulgogi (spicy pork): To thin sliced pork (from the Korean market) I added gochu jang (red pepper paste), red pepper flakes, obliterated garlic (five cloves), half a very large onion, green onion, soy sauce, toasted, crushed sesame seeds... let it marinate for an hour and then cooked in a skillet until done and carmelized; a simple spring kimchee: one head of napa cabbage, soaked in brine, rested in salt, rinsed, salted again, added garlic, ginger, green onion, red pepper flakes, and fish sauce; green chili peppers with dipping sauce consisting of dwen jang (Korean bean curd paste), gochu jang, sesame oil, soy sauce, and sesame seeds; Korean laver (you know, like the sushi stuff); steamed rice.
