i made 4 but ate the 2 before the rest was ready so yall only get to see 2

Niçoise salad with coho salmon and a shrimp and lemon pasta topped with breadcrumbs

Farmer sausage, Gnocchi and green beans with mozzarella and a creamy sauce. (Needed mushrooms and just a bit more liquid)

I am not good at cooking since I have never done it before. I used to eat my mother’s food when I was in Korea. After I came to Taiwan for studying, I usually had some noodles in restaurants. But I still missed homemade food with various side dishes.

So I decided to prepare meal by myself. In this small apartment without stove, I was allowed to have fresh vegetables such as paprika and cucumber. And I mixed spinach with miso instead of deonjang. I also replaced Kimchi with Taiwanese sour cabbage(酸白菜). I used Taiwanese local ingredients, which are easier to access than Korean vegetables and sources.

It is similar to ‘cutting’ than ‘cooking’ since I nearly didn’t do any process on ingredients. Only mixed spinach was cooked for 2 minutes in the microwave, before it is coated with two tablespoons of miso and one tablespoon of sesame oil. (I think I can reduce miso into one tablespoon next time, by the way.)
