The best part for me about Korean cuisine including this amazing Korean Oxtail Soup besides tastiness is how many dishes are spicy with a special unique aroma and distinguished taste.

My family eats a lot of pasta, as probably most of the households in the world. Just in the U.S. according to The American Pasta Report, commissioned by the National Pasta Association, 75% of Americans eat pasta on a weekly basis. We can make delicious read more
The life of a real foodie, it can be good or really bad -you gain weight, then you lose, but we comfort ourselves with food, at least I am.
I try to skip eating unhealthy snacks and go for the apple, but that’s not always a case… A girl needs her chocolate more than you can imagine!
I go through magazines, blogs, and cookbooks every day to find inspiration, and once you see the picture something magical happens…
The idea for your next meal, something that you haven’t tried before, or perhaps something to comfort you hit your head.
When I saw a similar recipe to this one it did have spinach and chicken, but I wouldn’t be me if I don’t change it, so little by little I started thinking about the combination.
I had leftover grilled chicken breast in my fridge, and a full bag of organic spinach; soup in that old magazine just had a makeover in my head. Popped my headphone on, cranked the music up and just relaxed cooking.
I love barley so I add in lots of my soups, it also gave an amazing taste and texture to this soup. I made it with Kale last weekend too, and it was very good.
A full pot of this soup was gone so fast, and I was surprised that my oldest two kids were asking for one more bowl.
It was really good and hearty, not to mention healthy too. If you don’t know what to cook for perhaps colder nights, this is something that the whole family can enjoy with some crunchy bread on the side or Soda bread.
This soup could be done with raw Chicken or already precooked one, grilled or roasted. It does take just a bit longer using raw. For I grilled did give nice aromatic flavor, but if you are not a fan of that, you can definitely try your way, and give your special twist. Instead of Spinach, you can use chopped kale Or any other greens, even green beans would work perfectly.
The balance of flavors, and a fantastic combination. It is sweet, sour and a bit spicy… It puts this meal on my top 5 best dishes that I’ve tried in the last few months.
I love Matcha, so this Green Tea Frappuccino is such a convenient and quick way for me to enjoy it without going to Starbucks. Plus, I honestly believe mine is better! Last week we went to one of my favorite stores, International Market, where most products read more
I really wanted to learn how to cook good Indian influenced curry. However, I was really lost how to begin because I knew that is not as easy as it sounds.
This past weekend I went to my friend’s house who is originally from Guyana. To my surprise she was making very tasty chicken curry similar to Indian, but not the same though.
While I was listening to her talking when she was growing up I felt so calm and was soaking in every word with pleasure. At the same time, I could relate in one way or another with her.
That learning experience making curry her way turned into a few hours of listening to great stories about her childhood. Oh, the memories, food
If I tell you my dreams, you would probably laugh! You all know how much I love authentic meals.
My wish is to one day go into people houses in different parts of the world, listen to their story and learn how to cook authentic meals from their kitchen.
This might be impossible but we can always imagine that those wishing one day will come true! Finally today I got the courage to make a change about the curry.
I was experimenting a few times. Well, I always failed, but then started to make the way my taste buds and my stomach would appreciate it.
I have to admit that I love spicy food, but for some reason, curry spice always hits my stomach really hard, so I had to adjust the amount of everything in this particular recipe.
To be honest I avoided for a long time eating and cooking with curry powder just because the taste was too strong for me, and I could never calculate how much is too much.
However, once I tasted my friend’s curry, surprisingly it was not very heavy on my stomach
I would also say that this is not fusion at all, it is just reduction of spices for our taste, for people who are not used to strong flavors that might people in that part of the world are eating on a regular base
I don't like too much sauce, so I made it a bit thicker by reducing the amount of water as well.
You can add a larger amount of spices if you desire.
This is not an original recipe, but after I made it a few times I liked this one the best for my own taste.
You can also add to the recipe 1 tbs. madras curry paste.

Thai Green Chicken Curry is simple and delicious meal for just about anyone. The delicious flavors linger with every bite.
I got a new cookbook for mother’s day, a gift from myself. It is “Cooking school-Thai Cuisine“.
I love Japanese, Korean and Chinese dishes but have to tell you that I also enjoy occasional Thai extraordinary food as well.
With that being said, I wanted to explore more extraordinary flavors of Thailand. This book was unbelievably helpful to bring the aroma of Thai cuisine into my kitchen and on my blog.
Today I am introducing a really easy recipe, and packed with an explosion of flavor. It is smooth and creamy, it is spicy but mild, and light coconut milk is just an amazing addition.
I versioned my idea to use a coconut shell as a bowl since I already had a coconut, which I had to use a hand saw and then a huge knife to open it!
Mother’s Day!
Besides my new lens from my hubby, a handmade cookbook from my daughter, I got numerous beautiful and thoughtful drawings from both of my boys.
Anyhow, let’s move on, me opening a coconut for 30 minutes is not interesting at all:))
So here is a recipe that I twigged a bit since it was including baby eggplants that unfortunately I didn’t have.
I really didn’t want to get out of my comfy PJ and drive to the store…so it is what it is, and it was so tasty!

It is smooth and creamy, it is spicy but mild, and light coconut milk is just an amazing addition. Enjoy!
Heat a pan or/wok over high heat, and add Peanut chili oil.
Add the green curry paste and stir it until aromas are released.
Add cubed chicken, lime leaves, and lemongrass and cook it for about 5 minutes or until chicken begins to develop nice brown color.
Add coconut milk with just a pinch of salt and simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes.
Stir in the Thai Fish sauce and serve immediately, perhaps over some rice.
Now garnish is up to you, I had coconut so I garnished it by shaving few slices, didn’t have Thai basil, or any basil on hand so I used cilantro instead just to give you an example and contrast of the colors. I did change the recipe just a little bit but it still seemed very tasty.
