Daniel's first time eating Bibimbap (he's never been to Korea), I'm super happy that he found it delicious!
Recipe (Serves 2)
- 1 1/2 cooked white rice
- 3/4 cup soybean sprouts
- 1/2 cup spinach
- 1 carrot (medium size)
- 1 zucchini / cucumber (medium size)
- 1/2 red bell pepper
- 250g minced lean pork (in Korea usually served with beef)
- 2 eggs
- minced garlic
- sesame oil
- sesame seeds
- soy sauce
- salt
- honey
- Korean hot pepper paste (Gochujang)
- Apple cider vinegar
Soybean sprouts
Cook the sprouts with 1 teaspoon of salt for 20 minutes over medium low heat, then take out the sprouts and put them in a bowl and mix with 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic , 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds. Soybean sprouts soup can be served with bibimbap :)
Spinach
Blanched spinach, put them in a bowl and mix with 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds.
Cut the rest of the vegetables into matchsticks and saute with little oil for 30s - 1min. I use Happy call pan, so no oil is required.
Minced Lean Pork
Mixed with 2 teaspoon minced garlic, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 2 teaspoon honey, 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds and stir fry.
Eggs
Make 2 sunny side up eggs.
Sauce (Serves 2)
1 tablespoon of Korean hot pepper paste (Gochujang), 2 teaspoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoon soy sauce,
2 teaspoon minced garlic, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon honey, 1 teaspoon sesame seeds and mix in a small bowl.
Arrange all the vegetables and meat in a large stainless steel bowl (I got mine from Daiso), sprinkle sesame seeds, drizzle with sesame oil, add gochujang at the side and serve right away!
Bibimbap is a popular Korean food that is healthy and low in fat.
