Here's what we have for dinner at the food court section at K Plus Food Market, Malaysia's first premium Korean Market, located at The Curve.
K Plus Food Market is one of the Korean supermarkets where I can buy nice ingredients like Samgyetang easy-to-cook kit, fresh kimchi, imported food products from South Korea, etc.
Kimchi Guksu (Kimchi Noodle Soup)
My 10-year-old boy's choice is Kimchi Guksu because he wants a kimchi soup noodle dish.
Kimchi guksu is a common Korean noodle soup. "Guksu" typically refers to noodles in Korean cuisine. Typically served hot, it's a flavorful dish that features kimchi as a key ingredient. It's made with wheat noodles in a broth of kimchi, garlic, ginger, and gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes). There are also additional vegetables like enoki mushrooms and green onions. Finally, there are sliced omelette and seaweed flakes for garnish.
Bulgogi Guksu (Beef Noodle Soup)
This is my 7-year-old boy's choice because he wants a non-spicy noodle soup dish. Surprisingly, when I did a quick Googling, it looked like there's no such dish in Korean cuisine. So, I just have to write about this dish based on my observation.
Bulgogi means thinly sliced marinated and grilled beef. As mentioned above, guksu typically refers to noodles in Korean cuisine. So, I guess bulgogi guksu can be loosely translated as beef noodle soup.
This bowl of beef noodle soup is served with glass noodles, beef slices, carrot slices, mushroom slices, and topped with a huge pile of spring onion. The soup base has a smoky, sweet, and savory taste because bulgogi marinade is typically sweetish.
Kimchi Bokkeum Bap (Kimchi Fried Rice)
My hubby's dish is a plate of good 'ol familiar Kimchi Fried Rice served with a sunny-side-up egg and garnished with seaweed flakes and spring onion. I guess I don't have too much to explain, it's a pretty straightforward dish.
Fried Croquettes / Doughnuts by Songsabu
From K Plus Food Market's website, they said, "Everything is better when fried", including deep-fried croquettes, crispy twists, and chewy doughnuts! I just found out that Songsabu is the best croquette brand in Korea.
Potato Croquette
This deep-fried potato croquette is really tasty. The inner filling tastes like luscious, creamy mashed potato salad, while the outer layer makes a delightful contrast with its crispy, golden texture against the creamy and flavorful interior.
Red Bean Doughnut
On the other hand, this doughnut filled with red bean paste serves as a delectable dessert, ideally eaten as a sweet conclusion to an otherwise savory dinner experience. I actually ate two of these! I hope my arteries are fine! XD
