Kimchi Fried Rice

If you want quick lunch/dinner in 15 minutes and you happened to have some Korean kimchi and leftover steamed rice at home, you can make a very yummy kimchi fried rice.  I personally love to add a sunny side up egg.  It's so flavorful and yummy when you mix the egg yolk with the fried rice.


Ingredients:
3             Eggs
3 cups     Steamed Rice
1 cup      Kimchi (chopped in small pieces)
1/2 cup   Kimchi juice (in the kimchi jar)
1 stalk    Green Onion (chopped)
1/2 cup   Zucchini (diced)
1 Tbsp    Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp    Gochujang (Korean Red Chilli Paste, you can skip this if you don't it too spicy)
               Salt & Pepper to taste

Serve 3

Method:

  1. Make the eggs to your liking, set aside
  2. Heat up oil in the pan, add chopped kimchi and zucchini.  Cook until zucchini is translucent.
  3. Add rice and stir fry with the kimchi juice, then stir in gochujang, salt and pepper to taste
  4. Finally add green onion and serve hot with the fried egg on top
Quick and easy kimchi fried rice is done.  You can put less kimchi and gochujang if you don't want it to be too spicy.  You can also add your favorite meat or even tofu to the fried rice.

Enjoy!
