Ethan's Kimchi Seafood Papaya Bowl

Submitted by Ethan Barrow

"The idea for this pacific yellow & orange themed dinner stems from the thought of progressively moving from seafood, transitioning to the mildly sweet mashed potatoes, and finishing with the taste of papaya. One wok, one knife, and spoons are all that needs to be cleaned up."
