I have just discovered my love for Korean food/ cooking! I’ve tried a couple of recipes and found a curry powder packet in my local Korean market and I recognised it from Maangchi’s video! I had to give it a try. I swapped her recommended pork for chicken breast and it was outstanding! Love love love this recipe.
The recipe for Korean style Curry Rice (Ka-re rice: 카레라이스) is here!
Have a cool photo you want to share?
Which to get? Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking. Maangchi's Real Korean Cooking has all the recipes for all the essential Korean pastes and sauces, but my second book Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking has more recipes, more photos, and more variety.

I love curry.
Try adding some coconut cream POWDER. Almost 1 tbs to the recipe. Fish sauce works well too if its not too salty. I like mine spicy so i add gochugaru or fresh gochu also. If you like a stronger curry flavor you can just add regular curry powder. Look for one without salt added or make your own…its simple to make curry powder.
Another good brand is S&B Golden Curry Roux from Japan. Its a brick and not a powder. Looks almost like a chocolate bar. Japanese and Korean curry are very similar.
