Ingredients

Gochujang Sauce (can sub sriracha)
  • 4 Tbsp gochugaru flakes Korean red pepper, 15 g
  • 2 Tbsp toasted sesame oil 30 mL
  • 2 Tbsp sugar 20 g
  • 2 Tbsp water 30 mL
  • 1 Tbsp rice vinegar 15 mL
  • 1 tsp soy sauce 5 mL
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
Mushroom Bulgogi
  • 4 portobello mushrooms
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce sub tamari for GF, 30 mL
  • 2 Tbsp rice vinegar 30 mL
  • 2 Tbsp toasted sesame oil can sub olive oil, 30 mL
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp gochugaru flakes can sub ½ tsp crush red pepper flakes
Fillings
  • 1 cup uncooked rice white or brown, 200 g
  • 1 cup bean sprouts 75 g
  • 1 cup kimchi chopped, 200 g
  • ½ cucumber diced
  • 1 carrot julienne sliced or shredded
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • 3 eggs

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Sauce: Stir together all Gochujang Sauce ingredients (if you have trouble finding gochugaru flakes, simply use sriracha instead of making this sauce).
  2. Bolgogi: Remove mushroom stems and clean caps with a wet paper towel. Cut into ¼ inch slices. In a small bowl, stir together remaining bulgogi ingredients. Toss to coat the mushrooms, and set aside to marinate.
  3. Fillings: Cook rice according to instructions on the package. Prep veggies, chopping or slicing as needed.
  4. Cook Bulgogi: Cook mushrooms in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, flipping to evenly cook. They should be slightly softened and deep brown when finished.
  5. Fry Eggs: Fry eggs sunny side up over medium heat (so that whites are firm but yolks are runny).
  6. Assemble: Portion rice into 2 or 3 serving bowls. Top with mushroom bulgogi, fillings, sauce, and a fried egg. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add sautéed veggies, like spinach, zucchini, or eggplant.
  • Make it vegan by simply omitting the egg.
  • Take the rice a step further by making it crispy. Pack the cooked rice into a greased saute pan, then cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, not stirring during that time. The bottom of the rice should turn golden brown and a bit crispy!
