A New Tub Of Kimchi!

Kimchi has been an important item in our grocery shopping list for a while now. I am quite fond of putting kimchi into my Tomyam flavoured maggi mee (instant noodle) to add more zing to it, and to add some fire if I cook anything not spicy. There are non-spicy kimchii out there, but I love those fiery red ones best!

Kimchi is a traditional Korean pickled dish made of vegetables with varied seasonings, and is the most common form of "banchan" or side dish. Kimchi contains a high concentration of dietary fiber, low in calories and rich in vitamin A, thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), calcium, and iron. But as in all things, eating them in moderation is advisable because of the high-sodium content. A new tub of Chongga Kimchii. Damage to our wallet : RM25.90 for endless fun in eating kimchi. hahaha This tub should last us a month.
Lunch for the family. Sake kamameshi (salmon flavoured rice with vegetables), simple telur dadar or omelette and a side dish of kimchii. A international meal that represent 3 countries - Japan, Malaysia and Korea. ;-)

Am going to cook kimchi jigae next time! Oooo yumm.
