Korean "Curry-an" Curry
Korean curry is another one of my childhood favorites.
Food that you enjoyed when you were a child seems to be the best kind of food though, doesn't it? I love all kinds of curry, but Korean curry has a very special place in my heart. Korean preschools, afterschools, daycares, churches, etc. all make this for little ones. So, every time I eat or smell curry, I remember a younger version of me enjoying a big plate of curry and kimchi before running off to the playground and getting scraped knees.
How do you like to eat, cook, enjoy your curry?

Happy Kimchi Ramen!
Yum! If you love ramen like me you probably know the first thing that pops into your head when you are hungry is ramen! During my first years of college, my mom bought me vegetables, meat, and other ingredients so that I could cook wholesome nutritious food for myself, but instead I chose to eat ramen. But, for the sake of my health, I needed to make a change. I decided to throw in whatever was in the refrigerator and made "better-than-college-ramen" ramen.
It's simple. Cook your ramen with different kinds of easy-to-wash, easy-to-prepare nutritious vegetables and proteins (tofu, chicken, beef)! AND add only 1/4 of the high sodium soup base! Enjoy the flavor of freshness and peace (no guilt from a prevented sodium-overdose)!

Fire Beef (Bulgogi)!
Literal translations of Korean foods can be fun! Bulgogi, probably one of the most well-known Korean BBQ dish out there, can be literally translated into Fire (Bul) Beef (Gogi). Like most widely enjoyed foods, there are many different ways to prepare and cook bulgogi. Taking my love for a variety of fresh, colorful, and yummy vegetables, this is the HappyKimchi way to make FIRE BEEF!
How do you like to eat, cook, enjoy your Bulgogi?

Happy Kimchi Fried Rice!
What better way to start off happykimchi.com than with Happy Kimchi Fried Rice?
Kimchi fried rice is one of my favorite Korean childhood foods. It is usually enjoyed as a “between-meals” snack, especially after school, with friends. This is a very easy dish Korean students make, other than ramen, when their moms aren’t home to cook them anything. If you dipped cookies into milk when you came home after school, I fried kimchi and rice!
Ingredients
Kimchi
o For more of the intense sweet, sour, and spicy flavor of kimchi, leave it out for a while in a Tupperware container to ferment faster. But be wary, with intense flavor comes intense odors!
o Depending on how big your kimchi pieces are, you can chop them into smaller bite-size pieces.
o I used “Oh-shinet” brand kimchi (Zion Korean Market).
Onions
o Dice the onions!
o I used sweet onions (Costco).
Ham
o Chop the ham into whatever bite-size you enjoy.
o I used Fully-Cooked Hickory-Smoked Ham (Costco).
Rice
o Leave the rice out to cool in a bowl while prepping your other ingredients. Rice that is too hot can get mushy and you will might kimchi porridge instead of kimchi fried rice.
o I used “Dae Poong” brand white short-grain rice (Zion Korean Market). This is the sticky kind of rice which sushi, and kimchi fried , is usually made from.
Cooking Oil
o I used Pure Olive Oil (Costco).
Instructions
Heat a frying pan and add cooking oil over medium-high heat.
Toss in the onions and sauté until they are slightly golden.
Place the onions in a separate plate, bowl, Tupperware, etc.
Add some more cooking oil to the pan and add the kimchi.
Sauté until the kimchi is slightly browned.
Place the kimchi with the onions.
Add a slight amount of cooking oil to the pan and add the ham. Try not to use too much cooking oil, because the ham already has some natural fat and you do not want the pan spitting oil at you (burns are never fun)!
Cook the ham until it is slightly golden.
Add a little more cooking oil to the pan and toss in all the items from before.
Add however much rice you like.
Sauté and mix all the items together to get Happy Kimchi Fried Rice!
