Description

Korean Bibimbap Bowl is a colorful and nutritious dish that combines rice, vegetables, protein, and a spicy sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
  • 1 cup spinach (blanched)
  • 1 cup carrots (julienned)
  • 1 cup zucchini (julienned)
  • 1 cup mushrooms (shiitake or button, sliced)
  • 1 cup bean sprouts (blanched)
  • 1 cup sliced beef (or tofu for a vegetarian option)
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for cooking)
  • Sesame oil (for drizzling)
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 3 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the gochujang, sesame oil, sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and soy sauce until smooth. Set aside.
  2. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Sauté the carrots and zucchini for about 3–4 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil and sauté the mushrooms until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. If using beef, cook the sliced beef in the skillet until browned and cooked through, about 4–5 minutes. For tofu, sauté until golden on all sides.
  5. In a separate pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up or to your desired doneness.
  6. In a large bowl or individual serving bowls, place a generous scoop of cooked rice at the bottom.
  7. Arrange the sautéed vegetables (spinach, carrots, zucchini, mushrooms, and bean sprouts) and cooked beef or tofu on top of the rice.
  8. Place a fried egg on top of the vegetables.
  9. Drizzle the gochujang sauce over the top and add a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a drizzle of sesame oil.
  10. Serve immediately, allowing everyone to mix their bibimbap together before eating.

Notes

  • This dish is versatile; feel free to add other vegetables as desired.
  • Adjust the spiciness by varying the amount of gochujang.
