Ingredients

  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1 large yellow or white onion, diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 t ground turmeric
  • 3 1/2 c corn kernels
  • 1 c plain, unsweetened full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 c (~7 oz) packed, chopped cabbage kimchi
  • 1 T apple cider vinegar
  • 2 T chopped chives or cilantro

Preparation

In a large cast-iron or stainless-steel skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the diced onion, and saute until it becomes translucent and just starts to brown, 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and turmeric. Cook until fragrant, 30-45 seconds.

Stir in corn kernels and saute for 3-4 minutes, until the corn is tender; a kernel should taste sweet and soft without a starchy texture. Stir in coconut milk and simmer until the liquid reduces by half, 2-3 minutes.

Fold in the kimchi and vinegar and cook until the kimchi is warmed through.

Remove from the heat, transfer to a serving bowl, and garnish with chives or cilantro. Serve hot or warm. This dish can be prepared a day ahead of time and refrigerated in an airtight container. Warm before serving.
