Notes about this book

    Spicy Ground Pork Bulgogi. I remembered that it was too spicy for my 12-yr-old last time I made it, so I cut down the gochugaru by 1/2T. He said it was perfect and ate two servings. Spicy Garlic Eggplant. I appreciated that this recipe didn't involve frying eggplant. Quick and easy. Mazesoba: Somehow I completely missed the garlic chives when looking over the recipe and my tenkasu had become rancid so had to be skipped. Still delicious despite missing those ingredients. The 12-yr-old happily scooped more of the raw garlic on his second bowl.

    Tenshinhan Crabmeat Omelet Over Rice - this was a great weeknight dinner. No crazy ingredients if you have a pantry stocked with some basic Asian ingredients. I see this as a very customizable dish depending on vegetables and proteins you have at the ready.

Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Chicken katsu (Japanese chicken cutlet)

    • rachel_ywqstg on May 20, 2026

      Cripsy and delicious! I paired this with the Katsu Curry sauce on page 143

  • Katsu curry (Japanese curry with chicken cutlet)

    • rachel_ywqstg on May 20, 2026

      Delicious! I love how smooth and velvety the curry sauce is - it contrasts well with the katsu. Caramelizing the onions and frying the potatos and carrots take extra time, but it was worth the effort!

  • Pork belly braised in soy sauce (Hong shao rou)

    • rachel_ywqstg on May 08, 2026

      I have made this multiple times and get compliments every time! The pork is soft and unctuous, and the sauce is sweet and savory - perfect paired with hot white rice and sliced cucumber! Aaron has a youtube video on this, and provides options to make the process easier without sacrificing flavor. I would skim the fat from the sauce before reducing - the meal is plenty fatty already.
