| Buchimgae or Jijimi (Korean Vegetable Pancake) |
I first ate buchimgae or Jijimi at a Korean Restaurant near UST, which is Santorini.. it is delicious but others may not appreciate it because it is made out of vegetables. I always enjoyed eating korean dishes because of the different textures and flavors that you can taste when eating it.
Whenever I like to cook something, I always check recipes online and then I look for ingredients that are available at our refrigerator. My mom is the one who buys ingredients, I just happen to combine them to create something new. Its my job to do that. I searched for recipes for Korean Vegetable Pancake and luckily I saw two.. I combined the two recipe and turn it into one constructed meal. It worked out and it is a success.
Can I consider it my own now because I experimented on what will work and what will not? Its a problem here in the Philippines because of limited resources, you really should need to find korean specialty shops and grocery, but with the recipe I combine, it is easier to find ingredients in this recipe.
