Homemade Kalbi (Korean BBQ Short Ribs)
After trying many recipes for homemade kalbi, I found this great kalbi (Korean BBQ short ribs) genuine recipe from a friend who learned it from his mom. It's sweet, salty, spicy, and very tender (thanks to the Coke). I use this same recipe to make bulgogi and dae ji bool gogi (spicy pork) and simply change the onions to sliced bulbs for the bulgogi.
Thighs on Rice
This is a very simple, quick, and tasty recipe and a special treat for all of you chicken thigh lovers out there!
Coconut Curry Chili
The coconut, curry, and mango chutney really turn the flavor up in this curry chili recipe. I put this together one night with what I had, and loved the results. It tastes better the next day, just like most chili, and even freezes well. Seriously, you have to try it. Serve by itself, with rice, or with naan bread.
