One day I was planning on making some fried rice with (even more) leftovers from hot pot when I remember this comic strip that I had see a couple of weeks ago. I had never made bibimbap before, but I ordered it almost every time I went to Super 88, so I figured it was time to try to make some for myself. I really took the words of the comic strip to heart: "...All it was, was nothing. Or rather, the idea of making something out of nothing. As long as it contained rice, that is...(and gochujang)...."
So I started off with some leftover brown rice.
Added some chopped napa cabbage.
Swiss chard.
Julienned carrots.

Imitation crab meat.

Cubed tofu.

Sliced cooked fish balls.

Sliced fried fish cake.

And thinly sliced beef (marinated in soy sauce, sugar, and rice wine)

Topped it with a fried egg.

And some sesame seeds.

And finished it with the spicy bean sauce.

The only thing is, I've always liked my bibimbap in the hot stone bowl, and since I didn't have one, I ended up stir-frying this all up to make fried rice in the end. =P
Don't you just love Super 88?
ReplyDeleteYour dish looks INCREDIBLE!
I love bibimbap. This looks amazing. I had some the last time I was in Seoul. I wish the ingredients weren't so numerous and hard to find in a dorm setting.
ReplyDeleteThat bibimbap looks nice and tasty and healthy!
ReplyDeleteBibimbap sounds an awful lot like "this n that" to me, and that's what it looks like too, from your pictures.
ReplyDeleteI love your mochi recipes too, because they are often gluten free. Thanks...
