What are your best true "fusion" dishes you've had or created yourself? And I don't mean putting korean food in a tortilla.

I thought of some other dishes I liked.

Adana kebab with the Chinese ShiZiTou (lion head), I call it the Arslan Kebab. So ShiZiTou is actually a Chinese meatball and Adana is some sort of meatball on a stick. So what I did was 50% ground meat(really doesn't matter, except I like beef or lamb the most) 25% tofu (tofu makes it really tender) and 25% tailfat. Next up is mix it with cumin, shaoxing wine, sesame oil, white pepper powder, sumac, salt(preferably roasted salt) oyster sauce, soy sauce, sambal oelek and gochugaru or carolina reaper. Put some starch into it and a egg or skip this part. Make it the traditional Turkish way on a stick on a barbeque or the traditional Chinese ways(fried, cooked, steamed and baked). If you want a sauce, use the garlic sauce I mentioned. If you barbeque it, it is a must to put some sherry or bourbon on it. Also don't feed this to a Turkish muslim, alcohol is haram.

Get some chives, I myself like Thai chives or Chinese chives, get some kimchi, get some spring onion, get some shrimp and get a few egg and chop all those up. Those are your fillings for a Haemul pajeon(korean pancake) Grab a cupped hand of all purpose flour, put that in a bowl and add a egg or two, about 1/2 of a tablespoon of salt, put 1,75 cup of cold water into it and mix it up like crazy. You got yourself some batter. Put some butter and oil and just put chives in a hot pan cut the chives about 1/4 of their regular size for some chivy goodness or mince everything together if you're really craving the pancakes, but put a lot of chives in there. Next up put the batter in a circular motion over the good smelling goodness. Also put a lid on it, so the top can get cooked. As soon as the top is starting to cook, put a egg on it and cover it up again. When the egg white is turning a bit white instead of clear, add some sesame oil and flip it and let the egg get crunchy.

If you got a mortar, cook some glutinous rice, put it in your mortar and pound the living shit out of the rice, but keep it wet or it will stick like crazy and if you do it right you can get some sticky stuff. Well that stuff can turn into a mochi, rice cake, rice cake bun, rice cake ball with red bean filling or peanut butter filling(top it with sugar). Please note that this type of food is more of a two man job and is really hard to make. The last time I did it, I used my fists and later on a rolling pin and later on a freaking mallet, because of the intensive labour. If done right, you can make it into a savoury meal or a sweet dessert, look for tang yuan, mochi, tteokbokki, vietnamese steamed rice cake and lots more! Sidenote : don't make it in the freaking evening if you have neighbours or a roommate.
