Korean Rice Bowl Recipes

Steps:

• Toss together the rice and 1/2 cup of the Korean Gochujang Cooking Sauce in a medium bowl. Cover and microwave until hot, stirring halfway through, about 4 minutes. Season with salt.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until browned and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain and then roughly chop.
• Wipe out the skillet, add the oil and place it over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and sprinkle each with a little salt. Cover and cook until desired doneness. Remove from the heat.
• Divide the hot rice among 4 bowls. Top each with an egg, avocado slices, bacon, the remaining cooking sauce and scallions. Drizzle each with 1/2 teaspoon of the sesame oil and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and cook, stirring and crumbling into small pieces until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess grease.
• Add garlic, ginger, and sesame oil, stirring until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in soy sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper. Cook until some of the sauce absorbs into the beef, about 7 minutes. Add 1/2 of the chopped green onions.
• Serve beef over hot cooked rice; garnished with sesame seeds and remaining green onions.

Steps:

• Stir cucumber pieces with 1/4 cup gochujang paste in a bowl; set aside.
• Bring about 2 cups of water to a boil in a large nonstick skillet and stir in spinach; cook until spinach is bright green and wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain spinach and squeeze out as much moisture as possible; set spinach aside in a bowl and stir soy sauce into spinach.
• Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in large nonstick skillet and cook and stir carrots until softened, about 3 minutes; stir in garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1 more minute. Stir in cucumber pieces with gochujang paste; sprinkle with red pepper flakes, and set the mixture aside in a bowl.
• Brown beef in a clean nonstick skillet over medium heat, about 5 minutes per side, and set aside. In a separate nonstick skillet, heat 1 more teaspoon olive oil over medium-low heat and fry the eggs just on one side until yolks are runny but whites are firm, 2 to 4 minutes each.
• To assemble the dish, divide cooked rice into 4 large serving bowls; top with spinach mixture, a few pieces of beef, and cucumber mixture. Place 1 egg atop each serving. Drizzle each bowl with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and a small amount of gochujang paste if desired.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, red chili flakes, oil, brown sugar, garlic and ginger. In a medium bowl, add pork and pour half of the marinade over it, stirring to combine.
• In another medium bowl, add onions, and cabbage and pour remaining marinade over top. Let pork and cabbage mixtures stand for 15 minutes at room temperature or for up to one day in the refrigerator.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add pork; breaking it up with the back of a spoon until brown and no pink remains, about 5 minutes. Transfer cooked pork to a bowl.
• In same skillet, add cabbage mixture with marinade and cook until onions are translucent and cabbage is tender-crisp, about 10 minutes. Return pork to skillet, with any accumulated juices, tossing to combine. Cook for about 5 minutes, until flavours combine.
• Divide rice into 4 bowls. Top each with pork mixture and serve immediately. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions.

Steps:

• Cut the steak into 3 to 5 pieces of the same thickness. Carefully slice any pieces thicker than 1/2 inch in half horizontally to create 2 thinner pieces. Put in a large nonreactive bowl or large resealable bag.
• Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, garlic, sugar, a pinch of salt and a generous grinding of pepper in a blender. Cut the pear in half; roughly chop 1 half and add it to the blender. (Refrigerate the other pear half for serving.) Puree the mixture in the blender until smooth, then pour over the steak; toss. Seal the bag and refrigerate 6 to 10 hours.
• Preheat a grill to high (make sure the grates are very clean). Meanwhile, cook the rice as the label directs.
• Remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Strain the marinade into a small pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes; set the sauce aside. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper and place on the hot grill. Cook, flipping and moving the pieces occasionally to prevent flare-ups, until lightly charred, 5 to 8 minutes for medium doneness, depending on the thickness. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest about 5 minutes.
• Cut the remaining pear half into matchsticks. Divide the lettuce among shallow bowls, piling it to one side; top with the kimchi and pear. Add the rice to the other half of the bowls. Slice the steak and add to the bowls; sprinkle with the scallions. Drizzle with the sauce.

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to the pack instructions. Meanwhile, in a large wok set over a medium-high heat, heat 1 tbsp oil and stir-fry the mince for 5-7 minutes, until golden and starting to crisp up.
• Add the pepper mix to the wok along with a splash of water. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the pork is cooked through. Stir in the chilli sauce and season.
• In a large frying pan, heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil and fry the eggs. Divide the cooked rice between 4 serving bowls. Top with the mince mixture and a fried egg. Drizzle with a little more chilli sauce, if you like.

Steps:

• Toss cucumbers with vinegar in small bowl. Reserve for later use, stirring occasionally.
• Cook rice in large nonstick skillet as directed on package, omitting salt. Spoon into 4 bowls; cover to keep warm.
• Add meat to skillet; cook until evenly browned, stirring frequently. Meanwhile, mix next 4 ingredients until blended.
• Add garlic sauce mixture to meat; mix well. Spoon over rice.
• Top with cucumbers, onions and sesame seed.
