Most people when they think of Kimchi only think about “Korean style Kimchi” but in Taiwan, there is Taiwanese-style kimchi (台灣泡菜). Since Taiwanese style kimchi is so different, a lot of people call it “Taiwanese style pickled cabbage” or “Taiwanese style pickled vegetables”. The Taiwanese version is the perfect accompaniment to deep-fried tofu which is a very popular Taiwanese street food and night market food.

This dish is “Stir-fried beef with Taiwanese-style kimchi”. The kimchi brings some acidity and softens the beef. The sourness is reduced by cooking, developing into a nice flavor.
