Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preparing a simple bibimbap (choose 4-5 of the vegetables listed in this section)
  2. Cucumber: In a small bowl, mix 1 1/2 tablespoons of kosher salt with 2 cups of ice water. Drop the cucumber slices/matchsticks in the salted water for 20 minutes and then drain and squeeze excess water out.
  3. Spinach: In a small bowl, season the parboiled spinach with 2 teaspoons of the sesame oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a 1/4 teaspoon of the sesame seeds. Set aside.
  4. Bean sprouts: In a small bowl, season the parboiled bean sprouts with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  5. Carrots: heat 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots and a dash of salt, and saute for 1 to 2 minutes, until the carrots are crisp-tender. Remove the carrots and set aside.
  6. Zucchini: Add another teaspoon of the sesame oil to the skillet. Add the zucchini and a dash of salt, and saute the zucchini for 1 to 2 minutes, until the slices are crisp-tender. Remove the zucchini and set aside.
  7. Bell pepper: heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over high heat. Add the peppers and cook until warmed through, 30 seconds, or the carrots for 1 minute, then transfer to the platter.
  8. Mushrooms: Add another teaspoon of the sesame oil to the skillet. Add the mushrooms and a dash of salt, and saute the mushrooms for 1 to 2 minutes until tender. Remove the mushrooms and set aside.
  9. To prepare the sauce, in a small bowl, combine the gochujang, mirin, sugar, sesame seeds, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside.
  10. Assembly and serving of bibimbap
  11. Divide the cooked rice in 4 large bowls and arrange the vegetables on top. Place an egg on top of the vegetables and rice. Garnish each egg with a pinch of sesame seeds and a teaspoon of sliced scallions.
  12. Serve with the sauce and the remaining sesame oil. The final step is to drizzle some bibimbap sauce and 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil over the vegetables and egg, then mix everything together with a spoon before enjoying.
  13. Optional components for bibimbap
  14. To prepare the beef, combine the beef, soy sauce, honey, garlic, sesame oil, and sesame seeds in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. When ready to use, cook in a skillet or a wok with one tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat, until cooked through.
  15. Doraji: Drain the bellflower root. Toss with 1 tablespoon salt, then rub the bellflower for a minute to wilt it slightly and release some of its bitterness. Transfer to a sieve and rinse well to remove the salt, then drain thoroughly. Heat the vegetable oil in a small skillet over high heat. Turn down the heat to medium, add the bellflower root, stirring, and cook until wilted and softened, about 3 minutes. Transfer to the platter.
  16. Gosari: Cut the fernbrake into 2-inch lengths. Heat the vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fernbrake and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the soy sauce, sugar, garlic, and sesame oil and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Transfer to the platter.
  17. Gaji namul: (Traditional preparation) Wash and cut the eggplant, cut in quarters lengthwise, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Put the eggplant in a steamer basket set over boiling water and steam until fork-tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Add the scallions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, gochugaru, sesame seeds, and salt, and season with pepper. Cool to room temperature before serving.For a non-traditional, alternative preparation method (my favorite), see note 3.
