This is a quick side dish you can make in no time. While you are making the main, it's done. I only called it a quick kimchi but I only named it so as my old Chinese friend back in my Uni life in Sheffield, who unfortunately lost in touch, taught me how with the name.
I wonder how she is doing. I'm sure she is doing great whatever she's up to and making this dish hopefully remembering me sometimes.
