KBBQ!!

It's been a long long while since I last updated. I actually have a lot of recipes to share with you as I have been cooking/baking quite a lot over the summer. However, my computer crashed and I lost all my data and that includes all the food photos I planned to post. So.. one big lesson learnt--- BACK UP MY DATA MORE OFTEN. 

Anyways, uni has started again and I will try and re-make the food I made in summer so that I can update you all what I've been doing in my kitchen in the summer:) 

And for today, I will be sharing you how I attempted eating korean bbq at home, since my flatmate and friends (and I) are all craving for some kfood. We do not have those professional/proper kbbq grill, so we used...

Yes.. We used a toastie machine.
This has two intechangeable plates so we used
the panini plate which worked fantastically. 

Cooks really efficiently too!


For three portions, we used about 500g of pork belly
marinated with salt and pepper.
Along with that we had onions, cucumbers and kimchi, 
with the korean ssamjang(+sesame oil) and rice to go with it.
The way to eat kbbq is that you wrap a bit 
of all the ingredients with a piece of lettuce.
It was a really fun and filling meal! It was a very interesting experience as it was our first time eat kbbq with a toastie machine. In fact this machine was newly bought for the purpose of this =P First time using it, so we were all glad it worked. I guess if it didn't, then we will just have to use it for toasties.. 

PS. We worked out that it is so so much cheaper to get the ingredients ourselves and bbq at home then eating out in korean restaurants~ Just the ingredients it was around 10 pounds, so that's less than 4 pounds for each of us. In korean restaurants, i guess it's at least 10 pounds per person, usually even more ( well they have better quality and wider range of meat.. so fair enough :P)

We bought two packs of 500g and turn out we only finished one pack, so in the next post I will be sharing how I deal with the left over pork belly.
