One of my favorite things about Korean restaurants is (what feels like) an endless amount of complementary side dishes that you get to enjoy with your meal. One of these include the sinfully delicious corn cheese.

It’s actually a common side dish in Korean bbq restaurants. In fact, more often than not, you’ll find it served in the insert surrounding the bbq grill!

Easy Korean Corn Cheese

This is a simple dish consisting of corn cooked with butter, mayonnaise and a dash of sugar. Then top it all off with as much cheese as you desire.

You’ll get to indulge in the perfect combination of sweet and savory with every bite.

And this is so quick and easy to make at home, requiring only a handful of ingredients, you’ll be able to get it ready within only 15 minutes!

Ingredients

  • 1 can whole kernel corn 15.25 oz
  • Butter
  • Japanese mayo: You can also swap it with regular mayo. However, I generally prefer using Japanese mayo (such as Kewpie mayo)
  • Sugar
  • Garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • Hot oil (optional)
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese 
  • Dried parsley (for garnish)

(For full ingredient measurements, please proceed to the recipe card below.)

Instructions

  1. In a frying pan, melt butter over medium high heat. Once the butter melts, add the canned corn that has been drained.
  2. Let the corn cook until most of the liquid in the pan evaporates (about 3 minutes) while stirring occasionally.
  3. Turn heat down to medium and add Japanese mayo, sugar, garlic powder, salt, pepper and hot oil. Stir until well combined.
  4. Add shredded mozzarella on top. If you are using an oven safe frying pan, broil for 3-4 minutes or until the cheese turns golden brown (see notes for alternative).
  5. Garnish with dried parsley. Serve while hot and enjoy!

Notes for Korean Corn Cheese

  • Cheese amount: Add as much or as little cheese based on your preference.
  • Stovetop version: If you are not using an oven safe frying pan, turn the heat down to low and add cheese on top. Cover with a lid and leave for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts.
  • Melt cheese: Alternatively, you can also use a blowtorch.

The best pizza in the city where pizza was invente The best pizza in the city where pizza was invented @farahjeats 🍕 
📍Pizzeria Da Michele, Naples, Italy 
📍 Pizzeria D’angeli, Naples, Italy
We got pizza from one of the oldest pizzerias in Naples, Italy and it didn’t disappoint. We got there right when it opened and there was already a line. We ended up getting the pizzas to-go and ate it on the hood of our rental car. Each box of pizza was only €5 and we got every item on the menu (it was only a 4 item menu anyway 😂). While waiting in line, the smell of the wood fired pizza was sooo good we were so hungry by the time we got our orders. We got pizzas from across the street too just to compare. There was no line at that restaurant and you could easily get a table. It was a little bit more expensive per pizza but still affordable. Both pizzas were delicious! Still dreaming about it till this day 🥲
Fun fact: Eat, Pray, Love was filmed at Pizzeria Da Michele!

Mee Goreng (stir fried noodles) @farahjeats Mee Mee Goreng (stir fried noodles) @farahjeats 
Mee (mie) goreng, a quick and easy stir fried noodles recipe that’s great for lunch or dinner. Popular in Malaysia and neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore— with each country having their own version of it. Chewy noodles infused with spicy, tangy and savory flavors, and ready within 30 minutes!
This is definitely not an authentic recipe but a simplified version that my mother-in-law makes often and now a recipe that I make quite a lot for a quick breakfast using ingredients easily accessible to us here. It definitely hits the spot! Feel free to add protein of your choice to this dish or just add a fried egg on top! 
I’ll work on an authentic Malaysian mee goreng recipe and share soon ☺️

Repost because some people said there was no audio yesterday 🥲
Try these Crispy Air Fried Crab Stick Crackers for size. A classic snack that could almost always be seen during Chinese New Year festivities in Malaysia. All you need are some crab sticks, a bit of seasoning, and a few tablespoons of oil!
This is such an easy and addictive snack. I always have to make a lot if I’m sharing because I tend to finish the first batch all by myself 😂

Save and share this flavorful and delicious recipe!
Ending my Ramadan series with one of the best dishes. This is a dish that’s traditionally served during Eid/Raya in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Every family usually has their own version of this. It’s usually served with nasi impit (cubed rice), lemang or pulut kuning (turmeric glutinous rice) but also just as good with white rice. 
Making this is a truly a labor of love especially when you make big batches. It can take hours! Families will cook this the night before Eid so the dish will be ready in time for the big celebration. The whole house will usually smell like rendang when this is made and honestly, one of the best smells that reminds me of such great and fond memories. 
This month just flew by— thanks so much for tuning in. I’ll be back with my usual twice a week recipes starting next week 💛
