I'm sure there's more rice underneath but it looks like a huge bowl of meat/veggies etc and a spoon of rice lmao

I made a little round ball of rice to put in the center just to show there is rice there. Although to be honest I wouldn't be mad if that bowl was full of beef instead of rice.

When I tried Hello Fresh back at the beginning of the pandemic (no longer use a food service), bimimbap with beyond meat was the very first recipe I tried, and now it's one of my favourite foods!

This is actually just four separate side dishes in a bowl, so here's a quick writeup for the beef marinade since the other recipes are basic fried eggs and wilted spinach:

  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (Tamari is my brand of choice)
  • 1/2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 Asian pear blended
  • 1 knob ginger, grated
  • 2 clove ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp gochugaru
  • 1 tsp fish sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Korean here. Ah, that makes sense, the gochujang giving it that color. Typically there's no spice in Bulgogi. Unless that's pork, then it's called Daeji Bulgogi. And you need some sesame oil and definitely garlic (there's garlic in almost all Korean food). My mom always used kiwi too since Asian pears are harder to come across sometimes. But otherwise it's pretty authentic.

As far as the side ingredients, it's usually been sprouts, kimchi, carrots, cucumber, zucchini, a fried egg and gochujang on top. But most Koreans just put whatever they want in anyway. I have never been that strict either, but just wanted to share what's "traditional". All that being said, that looks absolutely delicious and I would tear that up. I might try the shredded egg too, that looks interesting. Good job!

Thank you for the expert opinion! :)

You're reminding me of ingredients I've forgotten to include. I don't go off of a written recipe and just toss things in from memory. There was definitely garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. No idea why I blanked on including them.

Oh nice. Glad to help. Always gotta have the sesame oil and garlic. They are staples of Korean cuisine. It looks delicious. And those egg shreds are perfect for kimbap.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe what I get is authenticate but usually there is egg.

[–] LoneGansel 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The yellow section of this bowl is a shredded fried egg. More authentic versions would probably have kimchi as well, but I ran out of space in my bowl for that and just ate it out of the container off camera.

Shredded fried egg! What a neat idea :) I honestly thought it was fettuccine and I was like "I'd eat the heck out of that"

Beatiful and elegant composition. The beef looks perfectly done.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
