Korean New Year foods, known for their high calorie content, can be enjoyed more healthily by altering ingredients and cooking methods. Traditional dishes like Tteokguk (rice cake soup), Jeon (pan-fried delicacies), and Galbijjim (braised short ribs) can have their calories reduced by using seafood or vegetable broth instead of beef bone broth, adding more tofu and vegetables instead of meat, and avoiding frying with oil. Opting for fresh fruits over dried ones can also help lower calorie intake during the festive period.
