Spice Up Your Weeknight Dinners With These 7 Fusion Dishes

Salty french fries topped with cheese and creamy butter chicken sauce? Put some on my plate, immediately. This fusion of the two Canadian and Indian comfort food favorites is a dream combination.

Ssamjang, a savory Korean dipping paste, is mixed into a cream sauce and tossed in with a pasta of your choosing. It’s an indulgent, slightly spicy dish that you can whip up in just 20 minutes making it an easy but maximally flavorful weeknight dinner.

This twist on classic carbonara adds gochujang to the egg and cheese sauce, making for a spicier, unique flavor profile.

If you’ve been seeing the fried hot Cheetos bulgogi balls all over your fyp, you’re gonna want to bookmark this recipe. Instead of the standard cheesy rice center, swap in bulgogi and cheese, of course, for the ultimate dinner (or late-night snack).

Instead of regular corn chips, take wonton chips and top them with creamy crab rangoon filling, scallions and whatever else you fancy. These are also best paired with sweet chili sauce for dipping.

Layer dumping wrappers over a savory, cheesy meat filling in this creative take on the two classic dishes. These can be made as a single serving or in a dish for several people.

Instead of rice and seaweed, wrap up prosciutto, arugula, burrata and a drizzle of balsamic glaze for an appetizer that is basically a combination of all the tastiest ingredients in a new form.
