GAMJA SALAD WITH CUCUMBER, CARROT AND RED ONION



Gamja Salad With Cucumber, Carrot and Red Onion image

Gamja ("potato") salad is likely to be included among a sea of other banchan at Korean restaurants, and is typically mounded on a plate using an ice cream scoop. It's similar to mashed potatoes in texture, mayo-laden like many potato salads, and studded with crunchy vegetables and hard-boiled egg. It's generally a restaurant food, but when home cooks do make it, the salad might be sandwiched between two slices of soft white bread and eaten for lunch. The world is your oyster when it comes to gamja salad: It may include apples, peas, corn kernels, raisins and even nuts, and you can add whatever you like and nix whatever you don't. But the cucumber is gibon ("standard"), and essential, because it adds a vegetal freshness that pulls this dish back from feeling heavy in any way.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 Kirby cucumber, deseeded and cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1/2 medium red onion, very finely diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1 medium carrot, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 large russet potato (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes
1 large egg
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (preferably Hellmann's)
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the cucumber, red onion and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Set aside to sweat slightly.
  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the carrot and cook until tender-crisp, 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or fine-mesh sieve and set aside.
  • Add the cubed potato and egg to the boiling water. Cook the egg for 10 minutes and the potatoes until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. While the potato finishes cooking, run the hard-boiled egg under cold tap water. Peel the egg, finely chop it, then add it to a medium bowl. When the potato is cooked, transfer to the bowl with the egg and mash with a fork until uniform.
  • Add the mayonnaise, sugar and vinegar to the mashed potato mixture and stir to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Squeeze the salted cucumber and red onion with your hands (discarding any liquid), and fold them into the potato and egg mixture along with the cooked carrot.
  • To serve, scoop the potato salad onto a plate using an ice cream scoop, and eat warm or at room temperature. (To store for later, transfer to a resealable container and keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. This salad even tastes great cold, straight out of the fridge.)

SEASONED RICE NOODLES WITH CUCUMBER AND CARROT SALAD RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Seasoned Rice Noodles with Cucumber and Carrot Salad Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-4939

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 English cucumber
1 tsp kosher salt
3 carrots
4 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar, divided
2 tsp dark sesame oil, divided
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1 package rice vermacelli noodles
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

Steps:

  • Cut the cucumber into ultra-thin slices (I use my food processor to get them paper thin). Toss cucumber slices with salt and let sit for 20 minutes. Drain well, squeezing gently to remove any excess water. Peel the carrots and shred (again, I use my food processor for this -- it makes it so much easier). In a large bowl, combine the cucumber slices, carrots, 2 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar, 1 tsp dark sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds. Toss well to combine. Set aside. Cook the rice vermacelli noodles according to package directions. Once cooked, rinse with cold water and let fully drain. In a large bowl, combine the rice noodles, 2 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar, 1 tsp dark sesame oil, ground ginger, garlic powder and soy sauce. Toss until fully coated. Divide the rice noodles among four plates and top with the cucumber and carrot salad. Serve.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large cucumber, halved lengthwise, seeded and thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 bunch cilantro, leaves finely chopped and stems roughly chopped
1 pound large carrots, sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 jalapeno pepper, minced (remove seeds for less heat)
4 lamb shoulder chops (1/2 inch thick; about 6 ounces each)

Steps:

  • Put the cucumber slices in a colander and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss. Let sit 20 minutes to drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, coriander and turmeric and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add 1 cup water, the cilantro stems and carrots and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a food processor and puree until smooth, at least 1 minute. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; cover to keep warm.
  • Gently squeeze out any excess water from the cucumbers and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons olive oil, the vinegar, cilantro leaves, garlic and jalapeno; season with pepper.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper; rub all over with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Cook the lamb chops two at a time, turning once, until browned, 6 to 7 minutes for medium doneness. Serve with the carrot puree and cucumber salad.
