I’ll recommend 5 Korean dishes that don’t contain meat


Sweet potato cheese rice
It is a food that contains sweet potatoes, cheese, rice, seaweed, kimchi, and corn, and no meat at all. If you like sweet potatoes, it’s really delicious and the amount is pretty good. Sweet potato cheese rice would be great for lunch. Recommendation!


Udon
The second one is udon, a Japanese dish that I really enjoy and like. There are many kinds of udon, but kimchi udon doesn’t have meat in it, so it’s okay. Kimchi udon contains kimchi, udon noodles, seaweed, onions, and soy sauce. Kimchi udon is also highly recommended for those who don’t like meat.


Fish
Third, I recommend it to those who want to eat fish but not meat. Koreans eat seafood well, and one of them is fish. Grilled mackerel, grilled hairtail, and flounder are the three best fish I’ve ever eaten in Korea. So I recommend it!


Chicken curry
Chicken curry is the fourth one I want to recommend. You all know curry, right? Originally, in Korea, curry is pork cutlet curry, but there are also restaurants that have chicken curry. Chicken curry is made of chicken, and there is no meat at all, so you can eat it comfortably and it’s so delicious! If you like curry flavor, I recommend it. If you eat it with rice, it’s complete!


Soup with anchovies
Lastly, the fifth dish is anchovy noodles. Anchovy noodles are a dish that doesn’t have any meat with vegetables and eggs, such as noodles, pumpkins, and onions. It’s so good to eat warm in the cold weather in winter and it’s one of the favorite dishes of Koreans. If you don’t like meat, try it!
As for the recipe, you only need to boil noodles in anchovy broth, and if it is a simple noodle dish or feature that does not have an essential garnish, you should not make it too hot as a food where temperature is important. It can be seen from the fact that another name for banquet noodles is Onmyeon. After boiling the noodles, it is important to cool them in cold water or leave them separately, and then put them in moderately hot anchovy broth to create a warm temperature that is good to eat. However, in the Daegu area, the broth itself is rarely hot unless it is outdoors in winter, and it is common to cool it lukewarmly, and in the high-temperature and humid summer, which is a characteristic of the local climate, ice is floated and eaten cold.
Material
Cotton or middle side: 1 serving if you pick up as many circles as you make with your thumb first joint and index finger.For your information, restaurants specializing in banquet noodles or buffets use medium-sized noodles. Small noodles are used more often for bibim-guksu. However, somyeon is sometimes used for meat restaurant banquet noodles.
Water
Kelp: Twice the size of a raccoon is appropriate.
Dried anchovies and depots for soup
Other ingredients: egg garnish, zucchini, carrot, kimchi, cucumber, dried shiitake mushrooms or onions for soup may be added. Clams are good, too. Garnish is usually placed in five colors (Yellow-Yolk, Hayang-White-Jidan, Blue-Pumpkinchae, Red-Carrot or Kimchi, Black-Kimgaru or Shiitake).
When boiling noodles, it is recommended to boil enough water in a larger pot or pot.If there is less water, starch may come out of the noodles and boil them like porridge, so be careful. Bring to a boil, stirring well so that the noodles do not stick to the bottom of the pot. If you think you don’t have enough water, you can pour more water, but if you add a lot of cold water, it takes a long time until it boils again, so it’s better to add hot water.
That’s all for the 5 dishes that don’t contain meat in Korea, and I hope that the difficulties of not eating meat will help many students adapt well!
