Bibimbap Bowl

‘Bibimbap’ in Korean means mixed rice. We love Korean flavours, as well as the creative element of piling a wholesome base of rice with a medley of fresh, colourful toppings. This punchy korean dressing, with a hint of chilli, is also our fail-safe addition to finish the perfect formula for the perfect Bibimbap bowl.

Recipes

Serves 2.

Ingredients:

  • 250g brown rice, cooked
  • ½ pack of firm tofu, chopped into 3cm squares
  • 2 portobello mushrooms
  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 200g edamame
  • 4 tbsp kimchi (see end of booklet for recipe)
  • 1 small handful coriander, chopped
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 fresh chili, deseeded and chopped (optional)

For the korean dressing:

  • 2 tbsp miso paste
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp korean (or regular) chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 2 tbsp water

Method:

  1. To make the pickled mushrooms, preheat the oven to 200 degrees celsius. Place the mushrooms whole on a baking tray and drizzle with a little oil. Roast for 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Chop each mushroom into 8 pieces and transfer to a bowl. Add the tamari and rice vinegar and mix together. Leave to marinate for 5-10 minutes.
  2. Cook your tofu by adding to a little oil in a pan on high heat. Stir constantly for 5-10 minutes until browned and slightly crispy. 
  3. Assemble your bibimbap bowls by spooning the rice into the base of a bowl. Top with the tofu, edamame, pickled portobello mushrooms, and a generous helping of kimchi. Pour over the dressing and top with the fresh coriander and sesame seeds. Add some fresh chili for a little extra heat if you’d like it!
