How has it taken me this long to discover kimchi fried rice? It’s SO GOOD. Just make it and pop a fried egg on top. You will not be sorry. Feeds 2
- 250g cooked rice (either cook it yourself and cool it or use a cooked rice pouch)
- 100g kimchi, cut into small pieces if it needs it
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 onion, finely sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1″ piece ginger, minced
- 1 tbsp gochujang
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp veg oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 spring onion, finely chopped
- Sesame seeds
- Melt the butter in a wok or large frying pan on a medium-low heat
- Add the onion, garlic and ginger and fry gently for 5 mins until soft
- Add the kimchi and a little of its juice, the gochujang and the rice
- Toss everything together until the rice is coated (without being over-enthusiastic and ending up with mush)
- Add the soy sauce and sesame oil and stir in
- In a separate pan, heat a little veg oil and fry the eggs
- Serve the rice, topped with your perfectly fried egg and strewn with spring onion and sesame seeds
