KIMCHI-APPLE SLAW

I like to serve this slaw with any of my barbecued meats, but it pairs especially well with Grilled Hanger Steak and Roasted Pork Belly Lettuce Wraps.

Ingredients

Serves 4

  • 60 ml (2 fl oz) mayonnaise, preferably Kewpie or a Korean brand
  • 2 tsp Korean apple vinegar (sagwa-shikcho) or rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1⁄2 tsp prepared Korean mustard (gyeoja) or English mustard
  • 1 small Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and julienned
  • 1 small cucumber, deseeded and julienned
  • 115 g (4 oz) thinly sliced Cabbage Kimchi with liquid
  • Sea salt

Method

In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and mustard. Add the apple, cucumber and kimchi and toss with the dressing. Season with salt and refrigerate until cold before serving.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageHidden behind a nondescript door in the new @mo_mayfair Mandarin Oriental Mayfair is a new high end Korean experience, Dosa (meaning “expert”), by the one and only @chefakiraback and @jihun_maxime. The room hosts an intimate 14 guests and is visually stunning, a mix of platinum silver tones and sleek lines. Upon seating, you embark upon an elaborate tasting menu, full of Akira’s famous touches accented beautifully with Korean influences. I loved the soy sauce cured Mazara red prawn kimbap (I love seafood, especially raw!)— a clever twist on the more traditional crab version.  I also swooned over the preserved tomato with goat labneh crowned with fresh Kentish cobnut slivers. This foodgasmic bite was full of moreish tomatoey umami, a touch of fresh funky yogurt tang, while delicately rounded out with nutty perilla oil.  It was a gastronomic adventure and so refreshing to see Korean food finally being elevated in London to this level. Akira is blending tradition and innovation… fermenting in time honored old onggi pots (you can see them lining the counter), and blending these ingredients with a sophisticated contemporary style.

Maxime Maiano @one_to_wine gracefully ushered us through an elaborate yet playfully intriguing wine pairing.  Everything was executed in style. And you leave feeling as if you’ve experienced something quite special… with a content belly and buzzing head. 
I ate and drank too much… again!

Challenger Chef Katsuji Tanabe’s @katsujitanabe bravado is as big as his desire to take down Bobby Flay’s Titans! Calling himself the “bridesmaid” of cooking competitions, he is desperate for his first big win, and it’s up to me, judge Judy Joo to decide if it’s his turn for victory.
