Kimchi Fried Rice

Ive just realized, I have ALOT of backlogs. While looking back at the photos on iphoto, Ive seen familiar food but unfamiliar on the blog. Neglected much Well, anyway, lets just start with something easy.

Kimchi is a love or hate affair. Some may be overly pungent with garlic, or too sour, or too spicy. The homemade Kimchi which I made earlier this year, wasnt very sour as it was just fermented for a couple of days. Ive been dying to make another batch but I wasnt ready for the worms that creeps out from the cabbage every so often! *squeeekkk*

Incase you dont know yet, many korean food uses Kimchi as the core ingredient. Much because it is bursting with flavour, from spicy to salty to sweet. How versatile. I made Kimchi Jigae and kimchi fried rice with the left over kimchi I had. Perfect comfort food on rainy days.
