Veggie Korean Bibimbap

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup uncooked brown or wild rice
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 clove minced garlic
• ​3 baby bok choy, washed and  sliced diagonally
• 1 1/2 cups shiitake mushrooms, sliced
• 2 scallions, sliced diagonally
• 1 tablespoon tamari (or soy sauce if you are OK with gluten)
• 1 medium zucchini, spiralized
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 1/2 avocado, sliced
• 2 eggs
• Sesame seeds, to garnish

Bibimbap Sauce (may have some leftover):

• 1 clove minced garlic
• 2 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste; see note below.)
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon sugar or sweetener of choice
• 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
• 2–3 teaspoons water, to thin

Directions

Cook the rice according to package directions.

Meanwhile, prep all the vegetables as indicated above and whisk together the ingredients for the sauce. (If you can, shake it in a bottle or sealed container to create an even mixture.)

Heat the sesame oil in a wok over high heat. Sautee the garlic for 1 minute, then add the bok choy, shiitake mushrooms, half of the scallions and tamari. Stir fry for 3–4 minutes, or until softened. The bok choy should be wilted and vibrant green.

When the rice is ready, mix in 1–2 tablespoons bibimbap sauce, depending on your spice preference. Divide the rice between two bowls. Follow by distributing the bok choy mixture, zucchini, carrots and sliced avocado on top of the rice.

Fry two eggs to your desired firmness and place them on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle with the remaining scallions, sesame seeds and serve the remaining sauce on the side.

Just before eating, mix your veggies and rice together. Add more bibimbap sauce if you like, and enjoy!

Note: Gochujang (a condiment called for in this recipe) is a Korean chili-based sauce. If you can’t find it, feel free to swap in any other Asian chili paste. Note however, that some chili pastes contain fish sauce or shrimp, so if keeping the recipe vegetarian is important, be sure to read the label.
