Ingredients
- 1 large egg room temperature
- ⅓ cup kimchi chopped
- 5 pieces roasted seaweed snack or dry roasted seaweed cut into squares or seasoned seaweed flakes
For the rice
- 1.5 cups cooked short grain rice
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- ¼ teaspoon sesame seeds black or white both work
For the spinach
- 2 cups baby spinach packed
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
For the tuna mayo
- 2.64 oz canned tuna strained of liquids
- 1 tablespoon Japanese mayo or regular mayo
Instructions
- In a medium pot filled with enough water, bring to a boil on high heat. Blanch baby spinach for 60 seconds and strain immediately. Rinse off with cold running water and shake out the water. Then squeeze the spinach to remove as much excess moisture as possible. Transfer cooked spinach to a bowl and season with sesame oil and salt. Set aside.
- In a small pot filled with enough water, bring to a boil on high heat. Carefully lower in room temperature eggs, reduce to medium heat, cover and set a timer for 6.5 minutes for soft boiled eggs. For hard boiled, boil for 10 minutes. Transfer boiled eggs into a prepared ice bath. Once cooled, crack and peel with the back of a spoon from the less pointy side. Slice it into half with a knife and set aside.
- Then in a small bowl, combine strained tuna and Japanese mayo. Set aside.
- Next in a large serving bowl, mix cooked rice with sesame oil and sesame seeds with a rice paddle.
- Finally add chopped kimchi, the tuna mayo mixture, seasoned spinach, seaweed snack, and the egg on top of the rice. Mix together and enjoy!
