What's the Main Dish Tonight? 5 Hearty Meals from Lim Seong-geun

Bulgogi, jjimdak, galbitang, jjageuli — choosing the centerpiece of your table

If you're stuck on what to have for dinner tonight, start by choosing the dish that will be the centerpiece of the table. We've gathered five main dishes using pork, beef and chicken from the official recipes of Lim Seong-geun's channel, Imjjang TV.

They are spicy gochujang bulgogi and jjageuli, soy-based beef bulgogi and Andong jjimdak, and galbitang with its clear broth. With different ingredients and cooking methods, you can choose to suit the occasion, from everyday home meals to dinners for a crowd.

It suits times when you want a gochujang-marinated meat dish at the center of the table. Before you shop, check the meat and seasoning ingredients used in the video, and round out the meal with a crunchy vegetable side dish.

Beef Bulgogi (So-bulgogi)

A beef bulgogi video whose official description emphasizes the ratio of water, sugar and soy sauce in the marinade. It lists ingredients such as 600g of beef chuck, grated pear, grated onion and mushrooms, so you can consider it as a main dish that prepares vegetables and meat together.

It suits times when you want a soy-flavored meal rather than a chili powder-based stir-fry. Read through the water and seasoning proportions in the description too, and rather than cutting down only the amount of meat, keep to the standard amounts for all the ingredients.

Andong Jjimdak

An Andong jjimdak recipe that adds potatoes, carrots and wide glass noodles to a whole chicken. The official description introduces seasoning ingredients such as soy sauce, corn syrup and dark brown sugar, based on about 1kg of chicken and 200g of wide glass noodles.

It suits times when you want to enjoy not just meat but vegetables and glass noodles in one dish. Although it's a soy-colored dish, it includes Cheongyang chili peppers, so if you're eating with someone who doesn't handle spicy food well, keep an eye on how much chili you use.

Galbitang

A galbitang cooking video released by Lim Seong-geun's Imjjang TV on the theme of restaurant recipes. On days when you're craving a dish of meat and broth together instead of a spicy stir-fry or stew, it's a good way to preview the process of making it at home.

If you're planning to make galbitang for the first time, watch the original once before buying ingredients to get a sense of the cooking flow. Looking ahead at everything from trimming the meat to the order of simmering the broth makes it easier to gauge the work involved.

It suits days when you want pork, aged kimchi and spicy seasoning together in one pot with rice. It's a short 1-minute-42-second video, and the ingredients and quantities are written in the description, so you can refer to them as you prepare.

If you want to prepare a single stir-fried plate, go for one of the two bulgogi; if you want something to share straight from the pot, choose jjimdak or jjageuli. For a meal of broth and meat together, galbitang is the way to go.

The entries below are a guide for choosing a dish. When actually cooking, check the prep, measurements and cooking steps in each original video, and prepare the meat and other ingredients in matching quantities.
