Instructions
- On medium high heat preheat a pan/wok and once heated, add the cooking oil and spread it well with a spatula.
- Add garlic to the pan and stir for 10 seconds. Next, add bacon and stir until half-cooked.
- Add the kimchi to the pan, stirring until it's 80% cooked.
- (Optional) Add the mushrooms and mix them well for a few seconds. Reduce the heat to medium-medium low.
- Add the rice and the kimchi juice. Mix all of them together well and thoroughly.
- Add the sesame oil and mix them well. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Serve the kimchi fried rice on a plate. Garnish with the sesame seeds, green onions, and seaweed strips (all optional). Place the cooked egg on top. Enjoy!
Notes
- Ideally kimchi is at least 2 weeks old. If not, add 1/2 tsp rice vinegar into the kimchi juice to make it sour.
- Obtaining 1/4 cup of kimchi juice can be difficult if your kimchi is fairly new. In that case, use 2 1/2 Tbsp kimchi juice and 1 Tbsp gochujang instead. If you want it to be not spicy, you can add 1 Tbsp soy sauce instead of gochujang.
- 1 Tbsp = 15 ml, 1 Cup = 250 ml
