The creator just responded to my comment on her post saying it was her own thing. Thanks for all your responses. While not traditional, it was still comforting and delicious!

I saw a reel today by a Korean cook who made this dish for her child. Garlic, tomatoes, okra, scrambled egg, fish sauce. Thats it.
I made this for dinner and wondered if anyone grew up with this or if it was something specific to this creator. ?

(I topped mine with fried garlic coz I accidentally overcooked them the first time I started making this and scallions that needed to be used up. The kimchi of course is non negotiable. )

Definitely not traditional but made some vegan Tteok Guk today with Shitake mushrooms and tofu knots for protein.

I am pescatarian but my kid who spends her summers in Germany has been craving meat balls so here’s my version made with Impossible Meat. I followed a combination of recipes I found for Königsberger Klopse and adapted the sauce to be dairy free as well. ( my diet is really not very German food friendly lol) served with Red Cabbage and Apple Saurkraut, pasta , and boiled potato. Don’t mind the pepper flakes on my meat ball … I just needed a bit more bite..

Kiddo made us lunch today. Penne with capers and tinned smoked salmon from Trader Joe’s in lemon pesto from Aldi. The lemon pesto had a bit of artificial lemon taste but the capers and salmon helped with that. I also added red pepper flakes to mine.
Served with a side of sliced red peppers.

I’ve been craving camarones à la diabla for a few months. This came out so good but my mouth is on FIRE! Just as it should be.

Used cabbage instead of fish cakes. My first time using anchovy stock tablets. Eggs dried out a bit but the sauce should fix that!

Aldi herring in mango pepper sauce heated and sauce reduced over air fried potatoes, cornbread bits, and tomato slices.

15 years ago my German roommate made me this simple dish and I’ve been trying to get it right since then. I finally figured out how to make it to taste like how I remember! I know the egg is overcooked that’s how I like it :)

I binge watched Price of a Confession on Netflix yesterday. One of episodes has someone having Chapaghetti for dinner so of course I couldn’t stop craving it and had some for lunch today. 10/10 comfort.

Made gimbap again today I can’t figure out bow to make them bigger! Any tips?
