Morkovcha
''Morkovcha'' (, ; Koryo-mar: ; Russian: ), also known as Korean-style carrots; or Korean carrot salad, is a spicy marinated carrot salad. It is a dish in Koryo-saram cuisine, and is a variant of kimchi. History Koryo-saram (ethnic Koreans located in post-Soviet countries) created the dish as they did not have supplies of napa cabbage, the main ingredient in traditional kimchi. In Central Asia, where many Koryo-saram have lived since the deportation of 1937, the salad is also named ''morkovcha'', which is a combination of Russian ''morkov'' ("carrot") and Koryo-mar ''cha'', derived from Korean ''chae'' () meaning salad-type ''banchan''. The salad was unknown in South Korea until recently, when Russo-Koreans' return migration as well as Russian and Central Asian immigration became common. However, it has gained an international following, being served in most cafeterias throughout post-Soviet countries, sold in many supermarkets, and featured regularly as an appetizer ('' z ...
