Instructions
- Wash and cook the white rice
- Prepare and sauté the vegetables in a large frying pan. Cook each vegetable separately, as they may have different cooking times. Once cooked, set aside to cool.
- For the Chinese broccoli: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the broccoli for 4–5 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled and drained, toss with sesame oil and sesame seeds. Set aside.
- (Optional) Finely chop scallions for garnish.
- Make the sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- (Optional) Fry an egg, sunny side up.
- Assemble the bowl: Start with a base of rice. Arrange sautéed vegetables and Chinese broccoli on top. Drizzle with the gochujang sauce. Add the optional fried egg on top. Garnish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds, if using. Option to add kimchi for extra flavor or chili oil for extra heat.
- Mix well and enjoy!
