About bibimbap

Bibimbap is a Korean mixed-rice dish. This Korea.net recipe serves rice with beef, zucchini, bellflower root, bracken, egg and kelp, plus a cooked red pepper paste topping.

The red pepper topping brings heat and sweetness. Sesame oil adds a nutty note, while the optional soy-based seasoning adds savoury depth.

Soft rice and egg contrast with the vegetables and fried kelp. The toppings are arranged over the rice and mixed together to eat.
