Shrimp Paste Rice

I don't like food getting wasted. There are lots of hungry people all over the world. So, whenever possible, I eat all the available food. 

Recently, I've noticed this shrimp paste on our dining table. My mom said it's too salty and it's not good for her. In my case, I don't have problem with salty shrimp paste but this one is just too salty. 

So, one night, while I was thinking of what to eat,, I saw the shrimp paste again. The timing was just right because there's a lot of rice left. So, I thought of cooking "
shrimp paste rice". 

It's quite easy to cook, all I need is garlic, shrimp paste, and cooked rice. I mashed the rice, then I put the shrimp paste into it and mix it thoroughly. Then, I sauteed the garlic and put the shrimp paste with rice. I didn't add salt because the shrimp paste is salty enough.

Korean Egg Roll

I'm in the mood to cook nowadays so I tried to cook Korean style egg roll. Actually, it's just a rolled omelet. I'm just quite fascinated by how it was done so I've tried it. 


Since, it was my first time to cook an egg roll, I just used the available ingredients that can be found in my refrigerator. Here's what I did: 

INGREDIENTS: 
1 small onion, chopped into small squares
1 small tomato, chopped into small squares
3 eggs 
1 pinch of ground pepper
1 pinch of salt

PROCEDURE: 

1. Mix the ingredients in a bowl.
2. Put a small amount of cooking oil in a pan.
3. Pour the egg mixture and cook in a very low fire.
4. Once it's half-cooked, roll one part of it. 
5. Move the egg to the center and pour more mixture.
6. Repeat procedures 3-5, until you're done.

Originally, based on what I've seen in Youtube, the cook used carrots and onion spring. She also added egg. If you'll add egg then it will be thicker. 

Wait for the egg roll to cool down before cutting it. 

Have you tried cooking Korean style egg roll?
