Lately I've been exploring Korean food. Those guys appreciate chilies! Since
everyone here probably knows about kimchi and bulgogi I'll skip over that
but perhaps post few other recipes from time to time...

      Title: Fried Beancurd in Red Chile Sauce
 Categories: Main dish, Tofu, Chinese, Korean, Chilies
      Yield: 4 Servings

      2 tb Korean red chile flakes
      2 tb Tamari or soy sauce
      1 tb Water
      1 ts Sesame oil
      1    Garlic clove; minced
      3    Scallions; sliced
      1    Fresh chile (green or red)
           -minced
    1/2 ts Sugar (optional)
     19 oz Tofu, preferably firm
           Vegetable oil; for frying
      1 ts Crushed toasted sesame seeds

  In a bowl, combine red chiles, tamari or soy sauce, water, sesame oil,
  minced garlic, sliced scallions, fresh chile and sugar (if using). Set
  aside until tofu is fried.

  Cut tofu into serving portions or largish chunks, and pat dry with
  paper towels.  Heat 1 or 2 inches of vegetable oil in a skillet or wok
  set over moderately high heat. Fry tofu pieces until golden brown on
  all sides, turning as necessary. Remove tofu from oil and place in a
  deep serving dish or shallow bowl.  Pour chile mixture over tofu,
  turning pieces to coat evenly. Sprinkle with crushed toasted sesame
  seeds and serve warm with hot steamed rice, and assorted vegetable
  relishes.

MMMMM
