Kimchi Rice Recipe

I have decided to get better at cooking and will spend the time and energy to do so and also write blogs about my progress. A friend of mine cooked a very tasty and simple dish called Kimchi Rice and so here is my personal attempt at this.

Ingredients

• Jasmine Rice 300 gram

• Yellow onion

• Shitake mushroom 1 pack for 18 SEK

• Kimchi 500 gram bag 79 SEK

• Eggs two of them

• Soy sauce

• Cooking oil

Steps

Started by cooking the water then pouring in Jasmine Rice 300 grams and let it cook in low heat so that the rice wont burn into the pot. I kept stirring the rice so that it wont get stuck.

I chopped the Yellow Onion and Shitake Mushroom and put it into the frying pan with some oil. I let it fry a bit until it got a bit brown.

Next I simmer the Kimchi to remove as much water as possible then I put the Kimchi and Rice and mixed it into the frying pan.

After taste testing it a bit it seemed a bit dry so I decided to pour in some basic Soy Sauce and mix it up. Seemed to have worked well after tasting it again. I pour over the mix into my bowls. I ended up with two and half portions.

Then I fry two eggs and try to keep the yolk unfried. Then I put the eggs over the mix and now it is ready to serve. Voila

Result & Retrospect

The final result was tasty, the blending was a bit uneven, it is not very aesthetically pleasing compared to my friends kimchi rice so I will have to try this again. I got two and a half portions and put them in boxes.

Some rice did end up sticking to the pot so I will try pouring in some more oil into the water before I start next time. I may have also put too little water into the rice.

The rice was a bit dry during the taste test on the frying pan and I ended up using Soy Sauce to compensate. In a previous step I had simmered the water away from the Kimchi, next time I will instead just mix it into the frying pan.

The bowl I served it in did not look well in pictures. I should try a more flat plate next time. There is not a lot of diversity of color in the image either.
