Ingredients
- 1⅓ cups uncooked short-grain rice 300 g or about 4 cups/ 300 g, 1.3 lbs/ 600 g cooked rice, Note 1
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil divided
- 2½ cups kimchi 9 oz/ 250 g
- 1 small leek about 5.5 oz/ 150 g
- ½ green bell pepper
- 3 spring onions
- 4 tablespoons kimchi juice
- 1 tablespoon Gochujang paste Note 2
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seed oil
- 1 teaspoon roasted sesame seeds
- 4 eggs
Instructions
- Chop the kimchi, leek, and green bell pepper. Chop the whites of the spring onions, leaving the greens to garnish the dish.
- Saute vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large cast-iron skillet or nonstick pan over high heat. Add the kimchi, leeks, green pepper, and scallion whites and stir-fry for about 3 minutes.
- Add gochujang mixture: Whisk kimchi juice, gochujang paste, and soy sauce in a small bowl. Add the mixture to the skillet together with the cooked rice. Mix well to combine and fry on medium-low heat for about 3-5 minutes or until the rice is hot. Stir in the sesame seed oil and remove from the heat.
- Fry the eggs: Heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan. Fry the eggs to your liking.
- Sprinkle the kimchi fried rice with the chopped scallion greens and sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately with the fried eggs.
Notes
- Rice: Ideally, the rice should be cooked one day in advance. If cooking the rice on the same day, make sure it is completely cool before making the kimchi fried rice. 1 ⅓ cups/ 300 g/ 10.5 oz uncooked rice yields more or less about 4 cups/ 600 g/ 1.3 lbs of cooked rice.
- Gochujang paste: Start with ¾ tablespoon gochujang paste and increase the amount (up to 3 tablespoons – very hot!) according to your heat tolerance.
