Svt & learning to cook food from s/o’s homecountry (aka not korean food). A different culture & food for each member would rlly cool

making you a meal from your country

content: established relationship, fluff, foreign reader (non-korean), etc.

a/n: this was such a cute concept omg!! i picked the food items and the home countries at random btw sorry if i got some dishes wrong pls lmk if there's any corrections i should make 😭

masterlist

seungcheol -

he wouldn't be able to stand your homesickness for even one second, feeling too sad at your sadness and deciding to do everything in his power to make you feel better. he'd ask around for traditional south african dishes leading him to make you some chakalaka while you were at work. the hours of trial and error wouldve been worth it the moment he saw the happiness in your eyes at his efforts.

jeonghan -

being quite used to simply ordering takeout whenever he so pleased, jeonghan was not used to cooking at home too often. however, if his sweet s/o wanted some homemade tom yum soup, then he'd deliver! after a quick call to mingyu (and an hour or two of messing around in the kitchen), he'd be ready with your food. he loves thai food, so this would be a win-win situation for him.

joshua -

he knew you sometimes missed australia and were unable to go back and forth as you pleased, so josh would occasionally indulge you in making meat pie for you, following a recipe you'd once made for him early in your relationship.

jun -

he'd had indian food before and loved it, so it did not take any convincing for him to decide to make you some indian street food. he'd do it out of his own volition pretty often, actually. by now, he had mastered the art of various dishes, specially panipuri, which he would frequently make for you, and sometimes he'd even share some with his members.

soonyoung -

if he sensed you growing homesick and missing your usual chinese cuisine, he'd go out of his way to seek out jun or minghao to ask what food may make you feel a bit better. he'd then take on the task of making you the most delicious street breakfast, jianbing, knowing it wasnt too difficult a task for him and that it was a meal you'd often have in your youth.

wonwoo -

wonwoo was quite known for his lack of ability in the kitchen, but that would not stop him from making you some laksa whenever you were feeling particularly homesick. despite not knowing how to make any other singaporean dishes, he'd have specifically mastered at least one in order to take care of you in such a domestic way whenever the opportunity arose.

jihoon -

never having been one to cook much (he'd much rather stick to washing dishes), he'd struggle a lot through making you some pastéis de nata for your anniversary, deciding to make a korean-portuguese fusion of meals to celebrate your relationship. ok, maybe he called mingyu over to help, but the joy in your eyes as you shared the meal with him had made it worth all of mingyu's nagging as he followed his instructions to the letter.

seokmin -

he's never been to spain, but he's had a few spanish meals throughout his life, so he'd quickly understand why you'd often complain about the lack of authentic spanish food near your shared apartment. would take it upon himself to learn how to make paella in the most perfect manner imaginable just to see a smile on your face.

mingyu -

making a pizza from scratch was easier said than done, but mingyu had taken on the task the moment you let him know of the fomo you felt at seeing him and his best friends explore your country of origin, italy. you'd watched nana tour happily, but still felt a bit off at knowing you couldn't be there with your boyfriend. but fear not! mingyu was about to bring the authentic italian experience to your door!

minghao -

he's been to the united states so many times by now that he just knows american food by heart. wouldnt even need a recipe to know how to make you some classic barbecue on a sunny afternoon. would even make an entire day out of it, grilling under the sun while you sunbathed next to him.

seungkwan -

seungkwan has always thought himself to be quite a good cook. or at least he was quite good at making korean food. japanese food was another story. he knew how badly you missed homemade sushi, never enjoying any from your nearby restaurants. he'd have to ask for your help at some point, but the end result would be the two of you sharing a nice moment making a meal together, so it all went according to plan.

vernon -

he doesnt know how to cook neither korean nor american food, but you best bet he'll try his hardest to make you traditional vietnamese food in the form of bun cha and bánh xèo. it looked easy and like it tasted good, how hard could it be? would try his bestest but eventually need to ask you for help completing the task. a+ for effort, though.

chan -

he already loves mexican food, so making it for you wouldnt even be something you'd have to request from him – he'd just do it on his own! he'd already mastered all types of street food, eventually opting to make you menudo, knowing how much you enjoyed that meal as a child.

Nasi Goreng (Indonesian Fried Rice) by Pat Tanumihardja

Nasi goreng, Indonesia's version of fried rice, gets a sweet-savory profile from kecap manis and a big hit of umami from shrimp paste.

Why this recipe works:

1. Using either freshly cooked or day-old rice results in fried rice that separates nicely into individual grains, without clumping up.

2. Indonesian shrimp paste adds a potent dose of umami.

3. The sweetness of kecap manis balances out the dish's many salty and savory elements.

Nasi goreng is essentially Indonesia's take on fried rice. In addition to kecap manis, the country's ubiquitous sweet soy sauce, terasi (Indonesian shrimp paste) is what sets nasi goreng apart from other fried-rice variations you'll see in other countries.

Terasi is an umami bomb that pervades both your kitchen and your senses. If you can't find it easily, feel free to substitute another Southeast Asian shrimp paste, or omit it—you’ll be making what my mom calls nasi goreng cina, or Chinese fried rice, which is the version she made for us when I was growing up.

Ingredients

For the Spice Paste:

2 small shallots (2 ounces; 55g), roughly chopped

3 medium cloves garlic

1 large fresh green chile, such as Fresno or Holland, stemmed and seeded, or 1 teaspoon sambal oelek, such as Huy Fong (see note)

1/2 teaspoon terasi (Indonesian shrimp paste), optional (see note)

For the Nasi Goreng:

4 cups cold cooked jasmine rice (21 ounces; 600g) or other medium- to long-grain rice (see note)

2 tablespoons (30ml) neutral oil, such as canola or sunflower oil

2 tablespoons (30ml) kecap manis (see note), plus more for drizzling

2 teaspoons (10ml) soy sauce

Kosher salt

Ground white pepper

To Serve:

2 large fried eggs, cooked sunny-side up or over easy

Sliced cucumbers (optional)

Sliced tomatoes (optional)

Fried shallots (optional)

Directions

1. For the Spice Paste: Add half the shallots to a mortar and grind with pestle until a coarse purée forms. Add remaining shallots, followed by garlic, chile, and terasi (if using), grinding with pestle until each ingredient is mostly incorporated before adding the next. The final paste should resemble thick oatmeal in texture. Alternatively, combine all spice paste ingredients in a small food processor and process until they form a paste.

2. For the Nasi Goreng: If using day-old rice, transfer rice to a bowl and break rice up with your hands into individual grains.

3. Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add spice paste and cook, stirring constantly and scraping bottom of wok or pan to prevent paste from burning, until a pungent smell permeates your kitchen and paste turns a few shades darker, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium at any time if paste appears to be browning too quickly.

4. Add rice to wok and stir to coat with spice paste. Add kecap manis and soy sauce. Stir and cook until rice is evenly colored and hot throughout. Season with salt and white pepper.

5. Divide rice between two plates and top each plate of rice with a fried egg. Garnish with cucumber and tomato slices and shower with fried shallots, if you like. Serve immediately with kecap manis alongside for drizzling.

Special Equipment

Mortar and pestle, large wok or skillet

Notes

Terasi is an Indonesian shrimp paste that can be found in well-stocked Asian markets or online. We recommend purchasing handy single-serving packets. If you can't find terasi, you may substitute belacan (Malaysian or Singaporean shrimp paste) or Thai shrimp paste, or simply omit it altogether.

Sambal oelek is an Indonesian chile paste, traditionally made with nothing more than hot red chiles and salt. You can find it at Asian markets or in the "international" aisle of some supermarkets.

Kecap manis is Indonesian sweet soy sauce, typically made by combining soy sauce with palm sugar. We recommend Cap Bango kecap manis, but you may also find ABC and Conimex brands available online or in Asian markets. For more information, read our kecap manis explainer.

For best results, use rice that has been refrigerated for at least 12 hours and up to 3 days. If using freshly cooked rice, spread rice on a tray and allow to cool for 5 minutes before using.

Indonesia translation:

Nasi Goreng (Nasi Goreng Indonesia) oleh Pat Tanumihardja

Nasi goreng, versi Indonesia dari nasi goreng, memiliki rasa manis dan gurih dari kecap manis dan rasa umami yang kuat dari terasi.

Mengapa resep ini berhasil:

1. Menggunakan nasi yang baru dimasak atau nasi yang sudah dingin akan membuat nasi goreng terpisah dengan sempurna dan tidak lengket.

2. Terasi Indonesia menambahkan dosis umami yang kuat.

3. Manisnya kecap manis seimbang dengan rasa asin dan gurih dari bahan lainnya.

Kata Nasi goreng pada dasarnya adalah versi Indonesia dari nasi goreng. Selain kecap manis, saus kedelai manis yang umum di negara ini, terasi (pasta udang Indonesia) adalah yang membuat nasi goreng berbeda dengan variasi nasi goreng yang Anda lihat di negara lain.

Terasi adalah bom umami yang menyebar di dapur dan indra Anda. Jika Anda tidak dapat menemukannya dengan mudah, bebas untuk menggantinya dengan pasta udang Asia Tenggara lainnya atau tidak digunakan sama sekali - Anda akan membuat apa yang ibu saya sebut nasi goreng cina, atau nasi goreng Tionghoa, yang merupakan versi yang dibuatnya untuk kami ketika saya masih kecil.

Bahan-bahan:

Untuk Bumbu Halus:

2 bawang merah kecil (55g), cincang kasar

3 siung bawang putih ukuran sedang

1 cabai hijau segar besar, seperti Fresno atau Holland, buang biji dan batang, atau 1 sendok teh sambal oelek, seperti Huy Fong (lihat catatan)

1/2 sendok teh terasi (pasta udang Indonesia), opsional (lihat catatan)

Untuk Nasi Goreng:

4 cangkir nasi putih dingin (600g) atau jenis nasi medium- hingga nasi lama (lihat catatan)

2 sendok makan (30ml) minyak netral, seperti minyak kanola atau bunga matahari

2 sendok makan (30ml) kecap manis (lihat catatan), tambahkan sedikit lagi untuk dioleskan di atas nasi

2 sendok teh (10ml) kecap asin

Garam kosher

Merica putih bubuk

Untuk Disajikan:

2 telur goreng, masak telur mata sapi atau telur dadar

Irisan mentimun (opsional)

Irisan tomat (opsional)

Bawang merah goreng (opsional)

Petunjuk:

1. Untuk Bumbu Halus: Tambahkan setengah bagian bawang merah ke cobek dan giling dengan ulekan hingga membentuk pasta kasar. Tambahkan bawang merah yang tersisa, diikuti dengan bawang putih, cabai hijau segar dan terasi (jika digunakan), giling dengan ulekan hingga setiap bahan tercampur rata sebelum menambahkan bahan berikutnya. Akhirnya, bumbu halus harus menyerupai oatmeal tebal dari segi tekstur. Sebagai alternatif, gabungkan semua bahan bumbu halus dalam food processor kecil dan proses hingga membentuk pasta.

2. Untuk Nasi Goreng: Jika menggunakan nasi yang sudah dingin, tuang nasi ke dalam mangkuk dan remukkan nasi dengan tangan hingga terpisah menjadi butiran-butiran yang lebih kecil.

3. Panaskan minyak dalam wajan besar atau penggorengan di atas api besar hingga berkilau. Tambahkan bumbu halus dan masak sambil terus diaduk hingga dasar wajan atau panci untuk mencegah bumbu halus terbakar, hingga bau yang kuat menyebar di dapur Anda dan bumbu halus berubah beberapa tingkat menjadi lebih gelap, selama 2 hingga 3 menit. Kurangi panas ke sedang pada saat bumbu halus tampak terlalu cepat menjadi kecoklatan.

4. Tambahkan nasi ke dalam wajan dan aduk hingga nasi terbalut bumbu halus. Tambahkan kecap manis dan kecap asin. Aduk dan masak hingga nasi berwarna merata dan panas. Bumbui dengan garam dan merica putih.

5. Bagi nasi goreng di antara dua piring dan letakkan telur goreng di atas setiap piring nasi. Hias dengan irisan mentimun dan tomat serta taburi dengan bawang goreng, jika suka. Sajikan segera dengan kecap manis di samping untuk dituangkan.

Perlengkapan Khusus

Cobek dan ulekan, wajan besar atau penggorengan

Catatan

Terasi adalah pasta udang khas Indonesia yang dapat ditemukan di pasar Asia yang lengkap atau online. Kami merekomendasikan membeli kemasan single-serving yang praktis. Jika Anda tidak dapat menemukan terasi, Anda dapat menggantinya dengan belacan (pasta udang Malaysia atau Singapura) atau pasta udang Thailand, atau cukup tidak menggunakan terasi sama sekali.

Sambal oelek adalah pasta cabai Indonesia yang dibuat secara tradisional dengan hanya menggunakan cabai merah pedas dan garam. Anda dapat menemukannya di pasar Asia atau di bagian "internasional" beberapa supermarket.

Kecap manis adalah saus kedelai manis khas Indonesia, biasanya dibuat dengan menggabungkan kecap asin dengan gula kelapa. Kami merekomendasikan merek Cap Bango kecap manis, tetapi Anda juga dapat menemukan merek ABC dan Conimex yang tersedia secara online atau di pasar Asia. Untuk informasi lebih lanjut, baca penjelasan kecap manis kami.

Untuk hasil terbaik, gunakan nasi yang telah direfrigerasi selama minimal 12 jam dan maksimal 3 hari. Jika menggunakan nasi yang baru dimasak, sebarkan nasi di atas nampan dan biarkan dingin selama 5 menit sebelum digunakan.

[levi-supreme]

Rei, I'm so sorry for taking so long to send this. But, the truth must be told

Singaporean Levi and Singaporean raised Miche are co-workers in a company.

Enter the new recruit, Erwin. Erwin’s never left his own country and is heavily western-ish, so he falls trap when this convo takes place by the printers:

Miche: How's Singaporean weather for you?

Erwin: it's new to me (*assuming he's from a cold place) but I can manage

Miche: Great, have you tried the outdoor cuisine? No reservations needed, and it's a buffet

Levi, overhearing the conversation and knows that Miche's gonna take him to a hawker centre

Erwin: outdoor restaurants in this weather 😳 really?

Miche: 😏 yeah, and there's this salad you have to try

At this point Levi is all 👁👄👁 but still listens to the convo

Miche: it's leafy greens sauteed in blended chili paste and shrimp.

Erwin- sounds ... new. But definitely trying that while I'm here

Cut to Erwin leaving the printing station and Miche turning to Levi with a smug look

Levi: you gave the guy a recipe to kanglong sambal

Miche: I thought you were gonna kill me for calling hawker centres outdoor cuisine

Levi: I killed you a long time ago when you said dumplings, gyoza and shumai are the same [from experience, I have a friend like this]

Miche: that was in college 👁👄👁

Levi: exactly

I'm having so much fun with asean vets 😭😭

NICKKKKK 😭😭😭💕💕💕 I'm so sorry I took so long to answer this too 😭😭 I'm going to answer this below the cut just because you and I are the only ones who'll get this, and I have so much to say about this too 😭😭

Okay if I were biased, I would totally headcanon Levi to be Singaporean-born whose race is an Eurasian (French mum, Singaporean Chinese dad). His parents ended up getting a divorce and he chose to live with his mum, so he ditched his Chinese surname and adopted his mother's maiden surname instead. He would be the mixed blood kid in school that gets mistaken for a Chinese boy until people see how grey his eyes are, and what his name is. Levi grew up speaking fluent English, Mandarin, French, and Singlish too.

Mike on the other hand is a second generation Singaporean whose parents emigrated to Singapore in the 1960s or 1970s. I would like to imagine that Mike's parents were originally from the United Kingdom. Mike grew up speaking English at home, but he attended school with other Singaporean kids and picked up Chinese from his peers. He also studied Chinese as his Mother Tongue in primary and secondary school.

Somehow Levi and Mike became friends in university, and they ended up being colleagues at work too. Their Head of Department said there was a new guy joining their department, and he turns out to be Erwin!!!

Erwin is very VERY westernised and speaks with a thick English accent too. He's only been in Singapore for a week and is still clueless about the culture and customs here. Mike probably befriended Erwin first because hey, they're both English men haha. Erwin is what everyone would call a 'foreign talent' and he holds an Employment Pass.

Mike tried to be funny and wanted to tell Erwin about the hawker centres and the kopitiam, so he told Erwin about the 'outdoor dining', and Mike also invited Erwin to join him and Levi for lunch at the hawker centre the next day.

Erwin was sweating buckets at the hawker centre because it was hotter than he imagined 😂😂 Erwin was also very amazed at the variety of food available at the hawker centre too ("so this is why you called it a buffet..." Erwin says to Mike), and he was also very surprised that people use tissue papers and umbrellas to reserve their tables 😂

Erwin didn't know what to get, and Mike suggested laksa. Poor Erwin who has a low spice tolerance was sweating even more from the laksa, and his face was so red too 😭 Mike apologised and bought him a milo dinosaur as an apology, and offered to exchange his bowl of wanton noodles with Erwin. In the meantime, Levi was eating his Hainanese Chicken rice with two plates of chilli sauce.

"Isn't that spicy?" Erwin questioned and Levi merely shrugged.

"That's nothing to him. Levi can eat chilli padi without drinking a sip of water," Mike sniggered and Erwin look confused. "Oh, chilli padi is a really small but extremely spicy chilli."

The two of them had a nice time introducing Erwin to Singaporean culture and food. Levi randomly brought up the time Mike told him that dumplings, gyoza, and siew mai are the same thing, and Erwin looks at them confused again.

"Dumplings are Chinese, gyoza is Japanese, and siew mai is a Cantonese dim sum. How the fuck are they the same thing?" Levi looks at Mike angrily.

"They all have meat stuffed inside them don't they?"

"They don't even look the same, and they are made with different ingredients!"

And the two of them end up arguing the whole time while Erwin tried to Google just what are dumplings and siew mai.

The three of them become great friends. And of course, being the good friends they are, the two of them taught Erwin how to scold vulgarities and swear in the different languages and dialects, and how to speak in Singlish. Erwin finds it really crude initially, but now he caves in and sometimes swears lol. Levi likes scolding 'kannina' (fuck in Hokkien) and 'cao jibai' (smelly vagina in Hokkien). Mike usually swears in English but he also scolds vulgarities like 'hong gan' (similar to getting fucked in Hokkien) and 'sek si' (eat shit in Cantonese). Erwin doesn't swear in dialects much, but once Levi swore he heard Erwin mutter "walao eh" (actually means 'my husband' when translated from Hokkien, but it can also be something like omg or wth) under his breath, and Levi smirked.

(I am also having loads of fun with ASEAN vets too 😭😭😭 please send me more of them 🥺)

#nanami-n-nichole.asks #rei.answers #NICKKKKKKKKK #omg i love this #i have so much feels for this 😭😭😭 #watch me write about levi and mike bringing their angmoh friend erwin to try kaya toast next time #asean vets shenanigans #rei is uwu for levi #you're watching: rei is levi's parasite

Okay so I found an Asian MarketTM (according to the sign out front) in my new town, and decided to look for sticky rice, because while my taste in food has been described as "bizarre" and "that's serial killer shit (affectionate)", I know I like sticky rice and can PROBABLY not fuck it up-- ...turns out the market was more specifically an SEA market so they didn't have a ton of specific rices. Oops? Did manage to score a package of sweet rice, though, which I'm told is the same thing. Anyway, I know you've been talking about food lately, and seeing ingredients like millet flour and coconut powder (and 5-pound bags of spices) has piqued my interest, so-- what's a good SEA dish for beginner cooks to make? ....Okay let's be more realistic here, what's a good dish for an American with the palate of an English peasant from the 1500s and the ability to start a (small! It was small!) fire while boiling water.

....It occurs to me this may be an impossible question to answer, or perhaps a case for a "take the L and order takeout from real chefs" response, but I'd appreciate your input nonetheless (and recommendations on what kind of candies to look for at that store, because I will Definitely be going back for those at some point)

Off the top of my head with you mentioning "the palate of an English Peasant", is Bubur Lambuk (and not just because it may somewhat resemble gruel :'3)! It's basically a spiced, savoury thick porridge (It's heftier/less watery than Chinese-style congee) that you'll find being given out at almost every mosque in the SEA during Ramadan. It's tradition so to speak! You'll almost never leave a mosque without a baggie of the stuff to bring home eueb

I've linked a recipe you could try out! It's from a Singaporean so it should be close to the dot. Definitely something nice for cold weather! The recipe doesn't mention it, but you can pop in cubed potatoes, carrots and even peanuts if you'd like. I've had versions of it with those items before. I've got my own recipe for spiced chicken porridge from my mom I'm going to be experimenting with ouob

Candies are of an interesting to when it comes to SEA! Admittedly I don't eat a ton of them, but what I can remember are colorful icing sugar biscuits (we also call them Gem Biscuits, and we were constantly divided between the ones who'd eat the icing only, and the ones like me who preferred only the biscuit with a little bit of icing), Kacang Pipang (peanut candy) and Nano Nano sweets (a childhood fave, basically a delicious, fruity sweet-sour-salty thing). Oh, Sugus (a soft fruit taffy) and Kopiko if you need a caffeine fix, but candy. Both very popular with the locals still. Pics as below, in order.
