This is a community to share food pics, food ideas and questions. Basically anything to do with food. Every day there will be a post called Tucker Time for you to share pics or descriptions of your evening meal.

There's only 2 rules that I can think of right now
Rule 1: Don't ridicule
Rule 2: Don't be an arsehole

If you can think of anything else let me know. Cheers.

Been watching a ton of the YouTube shorts of Korean office lunches, and tbh they look incredible. Don’t have the budget for trying a whole Korean restaurants menu so wondering if anyone’s got some home cooked favourites I can have a crack at making.

Assuming you're living in the southern half of the country, I think jjimdak is pretty good around this time of year when it starts getting colder. Don't worry too much about specific vegetables or glass noodles or anything like that (unless you want to). Really the core of the dish is the marinated chicken, so if you follow that bit then you can add whatever you want alongside. I like it with white medium-grain rice but that's also totally up to you.

Oh yeah no a quick google looks amazing! Is there a specific recipe you'd recommend?

@Ilandar @TinyBreak Is there a good Korean or Asian grocery near your house? It's worth looking up on Google Maps.

Assuming there is, stop by and pick up some Korean rice cakes, gochujang, and daishi stock.

(I have seen gochujang in Coles, fish stock can work as a substitute for daishi.)

If you can track down these three main ingredients, you can make yourself tteokbokki:

I've been wanting to try Tteokbokki for AGES! Sadly any place I've been to served it with cheese so I couldn't eat it. Sadly no luck finding the rice cakes anywhere yet. But thank you I will have another search!
