This is a very basic kimchi fried rice, a humble dish made with leftover rice, kimchi, and usually a processed meat like Spam®. In this recipe I used cubed ham and veggies I had in the fridge. Serve with a sunny side up egg over top if you like.

KIMCHI FRIED RICE



Kimchi Fried Rice image

Not the high-heat stir-fry you might expect, Grace Lee's home-style fried-rice recipe uses a simple technique - make an easy, flavorful kimchi sauce, mellowed out with butter, and sauté leftover rice in it. It's perfect for a snack or a quick, simple meal. The Spam, though optional, reflects many Koreans' love of foods introduced by the American military.

Time 30m

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 small onion, medium dice
1 cup roughly chopped kimchi (6 ounces)
2 tablespoons kimchi juice, or to taste
1/2 cup small-dice Spam, ham or leftover cooked meat
2 cups cooked, cooled rice (preferably short-grain)
2 teaspoons soy sauce, or to taste
1 teaspoon sesame oil, or to taste
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 eggs
Salt to taste
Crumbled or slivered nori (roasted seaweed) for garnish
Sesame seeds for garnish

Steps:

  • In a nonstick sauté pan or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat, and add onions. Cook, stirring, until the onions start to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Add kimchi and kimchi juice, and stir until it comes to a boil, about 3 minutes. Add Spam, and cook until sauce is nearly dried out, about 5 minutes.
  • Break up the rice in the pan with a spatula, and stir it to incorporate. Turn heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until the rice has absorbed the sauce and is very hot, about 5 minutes. Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil. Taste, and adjust with more soy sauce, sesame oil or kimchi juice. Turn heat down slightly, but let the rice continue to cook, untouched, to lightly brown while you cook the eggs.
  • Place a small nonstick sauté pan over medium heat, and add the vegetable oil. When it is hot, add eggs, season with salt and fry to your desired doneness. Serve rice topped with fried eggs, nori and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

KIMCHI FRIED RICE



Kimchi Fried Rice image

Fried rice breathes new life into leftover grains. We've included instructions for making a quick kimchi, but this fried rice is also a tasty way to use up older kimchi you may have in the back of the fridge.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 to 8 slices thick-cut bacon
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
3 nori sheets (dried seaweed)
3 cups Kimchi, recipe follows
4 1/2 to 5 cups cooked medium-grain white rice, chilled
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Steps:

  • Cut the bacon crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Toast the sesame seeds in a large skillet over medium heat until golden, shaking the pan, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Cut the nori sheets in half with shears, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and stir-fry until almost cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the kimchi, reserving the liquid. Raise the heat to high and stir-fry the kimchi until browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the rice, the reserved kimchi liquid, the sesame oil and half of the nori strips. Continue to cook, turning and flattening the rice mixture with a spatula until it starts to form a golden crust, about 8 minutes. (For more of a crust, remove the pan from the heat, cover and set aside 10 minutes.)
  • Transfer the fried rice to a serving dish and sprinkle with the remaining nori strips and the toasted sesame seeds.
  • Make this spicy Korean condiment, then turn it into fried rice or serve it with your steak: Pulse 3 chopped red jalapenos, 4 garlic cloves, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons chopped ginger, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes and 2 tablespoons each fish sauce and salt in a food processor. Cut 1/2 head napa cabbage and 6 scallions into 2-inch pieces; toss with the jalapeno paste. Refrigerate at least 4 hours.

KIMCHI FRIED RICE



Kimchi Fried Rice image

Provided by Andrew Zimmern

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 small carrots, halved lengthwise then sliced into half-moons (1/3 cup sliced)
2 tablespoons naturally-brewed soy sauce, such as Kikkoman or Yamasa
2 tablespoons sake
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 large egg, beaten
3 dried hot chiles
2 teaspoons grated garlic (about 3 medium cloves)
2 teaspoons grated ginger (about one 4-inch piece)
4 cups leftover cooked white rice
3 ounces lap cheong (Chinese sausage), sliced
3 ounces store-bought Chinese roast pork, diced
4 scallions, cut into 1-inch batons (about 1/2 cup)
1/3 cup frozen peas, defrosted
3 ounces kimchi, drained, squeezed dry and chopped (about 1/2 cup chopped)
1 cup soy bean sprouts

Steps:

  • Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add the carrots and cook for 1 minute. Drain the carrots and reserve on a plate.
  • For this dish, you need to have everything ready to go before you start to cook in the wok.
  • Combine the soy sauce, sake and sesame oil in a small bowl for the liquid seasonings.
  • Preheat a large wok over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil and swirl to coat. Add the egg. Tilt the wok, scraping and breaking up the egg. As soon it's cooked, place on a plate. Wipe out the wok, if necessary.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the wok and swirl to coat. Add the chiles, ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 10 seconds.
  • Add the rice and cook, tossing, until the rice is warmed through and crisp in some places, about 2 minutes. This will give you some of that smoky "breath of the wok" flavor.
  • Add the cooked egg, sausage and roast pork to the wok. Toss for 1 minute. Next, add the scallions and carrots. Toss for 30 seconds then add the peas. Cook, tossing, for another 30 seconds then add the kimchi and bean sprouts. Pour in the liquid seasonings along the rim of the wok. Cook, tossing, for another 30 seconds. Serve on a platter.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right kimchi is essential for this recipe. Look for kimchi that is not too sour or spicy, and that has a good balance of flavors.
  • If you don't have any kimchi on hand, you can easily make your own. There are many recipes available online, or you can experiment with your own ingredients.
  • Be sure to rinse the kimchi well before using it. This will help to remove any excess salt or brine.
  • If you like your fried rice spicy, you can add a little bit of gochujang (Korean chili paste) to the dish. This will give it a nice kick of heat.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to this recipe, such as carrots, peas, or broccoli. This is a great way to use up any leftover vegetables that you have on hand.
  • Serve kimchi fried rice with a fried egg on top for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

Kimchi fried rice is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is also a great way to use up leftover kimchi. With its bold flavors and simple ingredients, kimchi fried rice is a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
