Cooking Korean food with Maangchi: Korean recipes, videos, and cookbooks
Sweet, sour, and spicy, this hoe-muchim is inspired by a restaurant in my seaside hometown of Yeosu. When you get some very fresh fish, this recipe should be high on your list to make!
I made this pan-fried seasoned Spanish mackerel on a trip to Mexico where I bought the fish early in the morning from fishermen coming in from the ocean, but it’s really an old recipe that I used to make for my children’s lunchboxes. Savory and just a little sweet, it’s a big hit with kids (and adults, too) : )

A creamy, Italian-inspired variation on the popular spicy Korean street food, rosé tteokbokki is a recent phenomenon in Korea. The first time I even heard about it was when one of you asked: “Maangchi, do you have a recipe for rosé tteokbokki?” Now I do!
1 minute video on how to make jjajangbap, blackbean sauce with rice! 짜장밥!
Everyone loves black bean noodles, but did you know that black bean rice is easier to make, super delicious, and is a great way to use up your chunjang?
Simple, nutritious, savory, delicious, budget-friendly and a loooongtime Korean staple: there are many kinds of soybean paste soup but baechu-doenjangguk is the all-time king!
This simple, crispy, fresh-tasting and delicious vegan pancake is quick to make and impossible not to like. Make a small one for a snack, or a big one for a meal.
Jokbal is rich and savory pig’s trotters braised in seasonings for hours until they totally absorb the flavors and are soft, shiny, and glazed, with the meat falling off the bone. This recipe took me years to perfect and it can’t get any better.
Hot and fluffy steamy jjinppang are irresistible! Soft on the outside with sweet red bean paste in the middle, they are great for a dessert or snack, or even a light meal when you’re in a hurry. Make sure the filling is a little chunky and not too smooth!
Tteokbokki is chewy rice cakes cooked in a red, spicy broth. It’s something I used to eat on the streets of Korea after school. My version uses anchovy stock, which combines beautifully with the spicy sauce and soft rice cakes.
A traditional, simpler, & faster way to make classic kimchi, done by chopping the cabbage in the beginning. Spicy, fermented, and delicious, it’s a great side dish for any meal!
Which to get? Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking. Maangchi's Real Korean Cooking has all the recipes for all the essential Korean pastes and sauces, but my second book Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking has more recipes, more photos, and more variety.

Kimchi stew is one of Koreans’ most-loved stews. It’s warm, hearty, spicy, savory, delicious, and easy to make. As long as they can handle spicy food, I never met a person who didn’t like kimchi-jjigae!
