Resep:Gimmari / Kimmari - Korean Deep Fried Seaweed Rolls


Gimmari, Deep Fried Seaweed Rolls filled with glass noodles. Chewy glass noodles wrapped with crispy seaweed, batter coated fried food is just always good. Next time if you're making tteokbokki or budae jjigae, this will be a good company, to be dipped into the sauce. 

It's always good to be back in South Korea, just to find good places to eat. I wrote about 15 Must Eat Korean Food if you want to read, well I definitely need to update it. Gimmari is actually pretty easy to find at the street food vendor in Seoul, but here in Jakarta, I haven't found it yet. So, why not making my own Gimmari. It's actually very easy to make, but it's so good. You surely can make your batter from scratch but once I tried using tempura flour, it turned really nice, light, and crispy. Double fry method is very recommended for this recipe.


Ingredients:
  • 100 gr glass noodles
  • 30 gr tiny diced carrot
  • 3 tbsp chives, sliced
  • 5-7 sheets nori seaweed
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 160 gr tempura flour
  • 250 ml iced water, you probably need more
  • salt to taste
  • water for boiling
  • oil for frying
Dipping Sauce:

  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1-2 tsp hot chili pepper
  • 2 tbsp sliced green onion
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1-2 tsp sesame oil
  • water to adjust

Resep: Salmon Mentai Rice | Beef Shirataki Mentai

Image
It's delicious but really I could not finish one portion, yes thank's to the amount of mayo. So, let's just share.  Mentai Rice , it's actually very easy to make as long as you have kitchen blow torch or use the oven to broil the mentaiko sauce. The sauce itself is made from mayonaise, preferably Japanese mayo like Kewpie and mentaiko (pollock roe / cod roe). If it's hard to find then simply replace it with tobiko (flying fish roe). Please do not skip the fish roe. Anyway, I bought the mentaiko from Tokopedia around IDR 270k for 500 grams, that's a lot, I know. Alternatively, take a look at Papaya Supermarket or other big supermarket as mentaiko is kinda hard to find here. I made 3 dishes with this Mentai sauce, the first one is the one with crabstick served with rice that mixed with nori powder, you can also use furikake. The second is nori rice with salmon aburi. Lastly, sweet and savory beef with garlic butter shirataki noodles. Well, the last one is definite

Hidden Korean Street Food Place Jakarta

Sebenernya udah tau dari lama cuma baru minggu kesampaian ke K-Bunsik . Lokasinya bukan di pinggir jalan tapi ada di dalam supermarket Korea K-Mart di daerah Dharmawangsa. Gk ada petunjuk jelas untuk K-Bunsik tapi sudah banyak yang tau kok, pokonya langsung masuk ke dalam supermarket aja karena cuma satu lantai jadi pasti ketemu di pojok kiri.  Tempatnya terbilang kecil tetapi cukup bersih, kalau hari biasa bisa dine-in tapi untuk weekend dan hari libur mereka cuma terima take away aja. Kalau diartikan bunsik itu adalah makanan dengan terbuat dari tepung dan biasanya harganya terjangkau.  K-Mart Dharmawangsa K-Bunsik Menu yang ditawarkan adalah street food khas Korea, mulai dari tteokbokki , odeng , rapokki , gimbab , sampai bulgogi rice .  Kebanyakan menunya halal, walaupun ada menu non-halal gk perlu khawatir karena pembuatannya dipisah kok. Kalau pesan menu biasa semua dibuat di dapur depan sedangkan yang non-halal dibuat di dapur dalam. Kebetulan aku datang pas hari minggu j

Bonus: Find out about how to get in K-Pop show and more things to do in Seoul Just finished my third visit to South Korea, it was enough to write about this simple guide, well or just take it as me sharing my stories. First, for us with Indonesian passport, let's just prepare some documents for visa. Either with or without the travel agent, here's my experience applying Korean Visa through Korean Embassy in Jakarta. Get In: By air, most of international flights get in through Incheon International Airport (ICN), though some flights from Japan also flying to Gimpo. First was with Garuda Indonesia. Last year was with Cathay Pacific with a transfer at Hong Kong and a stopover before going back to Jakarta. The airlines I know that have special price for 2 pax purchasing, Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific. Service was amazing, personally (for no reason, my un-important thing) I usually make an order for special meal request. From gluten free to vegetarian, it's just fun to
