If you read my home page, you must know I also love Korean food because many Korean dishes are spicy and I love spicy food. I watched a lot of TV shows about Korean food and I want to go to Korea with my best friend one day to eat all of the delicious food I have seen on TV. Actually, I found and went to a great Korean restaurant here in Miami. The chief is Korean and they have many delicious real Korean dishes. I cannot wait to go to Korea to try local restaurants and street food. Similar to China, Korea also has various yummy street food. Today I am going to share my first cooking experience of foreign food, Tteok-bokki, the stir-fried rice cakes. In China we also eat rice cake, but Korean rice cake has special recipe with Korean red pepper paste. Let's see what we need for Tteok-bokki: Main Ingredients: 1 bag of rice cake 2 or 3 pieces of fish cake 2 handful cabbage(forgot put in the picture) Scallion Korean Red Pepper Paste Crispy Seaweed White Sesame Sugar Steps: 1. Cut fish cake into triangles, shred cabbage, and cut scallion into strips as the similar size as rice cake. 2. If you have rice cake refrigerated, cook it for 5 minutes. And then soak in cold water and put aside. 3. Add water (enough to cover rice cake in the pot), and 3 tps red pepper paste, wait till boiled. 4. Add rice cake and boil till the rice cakes get soft and the sauce get thick (during this step, keep stirring to avoid the rice cakes sticking on the bottom of the pan), then turn the fire to medium and add fish cake (stir for 2 minutes), then add cabbage (keep stirring for 1 minute). Lastly, put scallion and mix well. 5. Scoop out rice cakes in a plate and Enjoy it! (I love to sprinkle some seaweed and sesame on the top) Hope I can go to Korea for my first food tour very soon. I want to try the strange sausage Sundae, and I must go to the Gwangjang Market first to try the local street food that I saw on TV, such as fish shaped pastry, and the mini Gimbap, of course I must try the local Kimchi dishes, for example the pancake made with Kimchi.
What is you favorite foreign cuisine? Where is your dream place to have food tour? Did you ever try to cook one foreign dish?

This looks so good! I really hope you get to vist Korea soon and tell us all about it! Your post make me want to try and make foreign dishes but Im scared it will turn out bad lol. I once visted an Asian market called Chung Hing Oriental Market here in North Miami, I bought seaweed wraps and a matt to make sushi on! They turned out yummy but very messy. I got to work on my skills!

I want to try Korean food! Do you like Vietnamese food? I like a lot if that. Especially the Pho and the drinks with the tapioca beads.
