Bibimbap (Mixed Rice with Vegetables)


Bibimbap or mixed rice with vegetables and meat are one of the first Korean dishes that I've tasted. It's like a Mongolian bowl but the ingredients are cooked separately. This one is a complete healthy meal, rice for carbohydrates, meat and egg for protein, vegetables for vitamins and minerals. The main highlight of this dish is the chili pepper paste but in this one I used garlic chili paste. Korean food are now popular in many countries together with their music and tv series/drama. Maybe someday I can visit Korea and try their authentic cuisine. Most Korean dishes are spicy, this is because of the cold weather in their country. You will notice that most of my recipes are about spicy and hot foods. Its a great thing that both my wife and I share the same spicy taste buds.
