I love eating kimchi fried rice or also known as kimchi-bokkeum-bap. It has become one of my favourite Korean dishes to eat. I like to order this when I am eating out at a Korean restaurant.

Since lockdown happened, we started to make more Korean cuisine at home, this dish in particular. `We usually have some homemade kimchi at home in our fridge.

I love that this dish as it is versatile and can be made with meat or without meat and any vegetable of your choice. To top off my kimchi fried rice, I love to add a sunny side egg too.

Steps

1

Add oil and butter to the wok or pan. On medium heat, add the onions and sauté until almost translucent. Add the garlic and spring onions cook for a minute continuously stirring. Then add the bacon slices and sauté the meat until cooked. Stir frequently to prevent the bacon burning.
2

Once bacon has fully cooked, add another knob of butter and add the kimchi and stir to incorporate all of the ingredients. Cook for about 2 minutes. Then reduce heat to medium low and add the rice. Mix everything thoroughly together to evenly coat the rice with the kimchi.
3

Add sesame oil, kimchi juice and gochujang (optimal). Stir everything to incorporate all of the flavours. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for another 5 minutes, stir the rice one more time and turn off the heat. Cover wok with the lid to keep hot.
4

To make the fried egg, add cooking oil to a small pan on high heat. Once oil is hot enough crack an egg and add into the pan. Cook the egg to preference (I like my egg yolk runny).
5

Place rice in a shallow bowl or plate and the fried egg on top. Garnish with spring onions and sprinkle sesame seeds (optional). Serve and eat immediately while hot.
