I have been busier than ever at work, and haven’t had much time to share about cooking and food preparation. How can one possibly have a healthy diet with such a crazy schedule?
Well, Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim has a perfect solution for just such emergencies. She has taught me that good and healthy food doesn’t have to take hours to prepare.
Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim loves to cook. She cooks with lots of love and you can taste that love! Food prepared like this has to be good! 🙂
It helps if you are close to an oriental store, especially Korean grocery store. Get some plain rice cakes, either fresh, or frozen, both varieties work well, and you can get the ovalettes, or the little strings or fat ropes – they are all very good.
What if you can’t get any rice cakes? Be creative! Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim reminds us ” find your own solutions!” You could just sautee plain rice, and go from there. If you can tolerate gluten, then you could boil any kind of pasta (and if gluten free, you could use gluten free pasta)
You can either just sautee the rice cakes, whatever the shape, in a pan with either olive oil, or sesame oil (or any oil of your liking) and add salt, black pepper, and garlic. Sautee until very light brown and crispy – or, if you prefer, you can just sautee until they are soft.
At this stage, you can either eat as is, or add an egg or two. Add some kimchi on the side, and you are all set!
