KOREAN BIBIMBAP VEGAN RECIPE | THE HAPPY PEAR

meat (beef or chicken)

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: ground pork

Tofu is a plant-based protein, while ground pork is often less expensive than beef.

Heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil in a pan.

Rip oyster mushrooms into pieces and add to the pan.

Use a puck to compress the mushrooms in the pan for a couple of minutes to evaporate liquid and enhance flavor.

In a bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of miso, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of gochujang, and 1/2 teaspoon of gochugaru.

Add 3 tablespoons of water to the sauce mixture to achieve a desired consistency.

Continue cooking the mushrooms until they are browned on both sides, then add half of the sauce to the mushrooms and mix well.

Remove the mushrooms from the pan once cooked.

Prepare raw vegetables by chopping radish, cucumber, and carrot into matchsticks.

Heat 200 grams of precooked basmati rice in the pan for a couple of minutes, adding a bit of sauce for flavor.

Assemble the dish by layering the rice, mushrooms, and raw vegetables.

Top with kimchi, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sesame oil.
