Ingredients

• Cooked short-grain rice - 1 cup
• Carrot - 1 medium, julienned
• Zucchini - 1 medium, julienned
• Spinach - 100 grams, blanched and chopped
• Mushrooms (shiitake or button) - 100 grams, sliced
• Soy sauce (kosher) - 2 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 2 tablespoons
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Eggs - 2 large (optional for a vegetarian version)
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon, toasted
• Gochujang (Korean chili paste) - 2 tablespoons
• Salt - to taste
• Pepper - to taste

Steps

1. Prepare cooked short-grain rice according to package instructions and keep warm.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the sliced mushrooms until tender, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic, salt, and pepper, then cook for an additional minute.
3. In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat. Sauté the julienned carrots and zucchini for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp. Season with a pinch of salt.
4. In the same pan, add the blanched spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes until heated through. Remove all vegetables from heat and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, if using, fry the eggs sunny-side up to your desired doneness.
6. To assemble, place a serving of warm rice in a bowl. Arrange the sautéed vegetables (mushrooms, carrots, zucchini, spinach) artistically over the rice.
7. Top with a fried egg, if desired, and drizzle with remaining sesame oil and soy sauce. Add a dollop of gochujang and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
8. Mix everything together before eating for a burst of flavors and enjoy your Vegetable Bibimbap!
