Bibimbap, meaning “mixed rice,” is a signature Korean dish known for its colorful presentation and bold flavors. It consists of a base of steamed rice topped with an assortment of seasoned vegetables, a fried egg, and thinly sliced beef or tofu. Gochujang, a spicy chili paste, is served on the side for added heat. To prepare, sauté each vegetable separately—commonly used are spinach, bean sprouts, carrots, and mushrooms—to retain their distinct flavors. Cook the beef or tofu with soy sauce, garlic, and sesame oil. Assemble the dish by arranging the toppings over the rice and finish with a fried egg. Mix everything together before eating for a delicious and satisfying meal.
