Key Ingredients- 2 bowls of warm cooked rice
- 20g flying fish roe (tobiko)
- 25g pickled radish (danmuji)
- 1/4 cucumber
- 1/4 carrot
- 50g sliced ham
- 80g kimchi
- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- A pinch of dried seaweed flakes (gim garu)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare some delicious stir-fried kimchi. Finely chop the kimchi and add it to a pan with 1 Tbsp of sesame oil. Stir-fry over medium-low heat until fragrant and slightly softened. If your kimchi is very sour, a tiny pinch of sugar can balance the flavor. Set the stir-fried kimchi aside in a bowl.
Step 2
Now, let’s prepare the stone pot. Brush the inside walls of the stone pot evenly with the remaining 1 Tbsp of sesame oil. This step is crucial to prevent the rice from sticking and to add an extra layer of nutty flavor.
Step 3
Place the 2 bowls of warm cooked rice into the prepared stone pot, arranging it nicely. After adding the rice, we’ll artfully arrange the vegetables and ham around the edges. Finely dice the carrot and cucumber (removing the seeds from the cucumber is recommended for a better texture). Dice the sliced ham as well. Arrange these colorful ingredients around the rice, creating a visually appealing presentation.
Step 4
Next, spoon the delicious stir-fried kimchi you prepared earlier right on top of the rice. The savory kimchi will meld beautifully with the rice for a rich flavor experience.
Step 5
Now for the star ingredient: the flying fish roe! Gently place the fresh and plump flying fish roe over the rice. As it heats up with the rice, it will become even more delightful.
Step 6
Finally, sprinkle a generous pinch of dried seaweed flakes over everything. This adds a wonderful savory aroma and a beautiful finish to the dish. Feel free to adjust the amount to your preference.
Step 7
It’s time to cook! Place the assembled stone pot on your gas stove. Cover it tightly with the lid and cook over medium to low heat for about 5 minutes. You’ll hear the ingredients sizzling and the rice warming through beautifully. You can serve it immediately, or let it rest covered off the heat for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld further. Enjoy your delicious Stone Pot Bibimbap!
