Baek Jong-won's Kimchi Rice Melts with Cheese

Cooking tips
- Olive oil has a strong flavor that can overpower the taste of kimchi seasoning, so use neutral-flavored vegetable oil or canola oil instead.
- Red pepper powder burns easily when dry, creating a bitter taste, so always add it when the kimchi still has moisture and mix quickly.
- If you don’t have a proper lid for melting cheese, use a large plate or invert another pan to trap heat effectively.
- Even if seasoning goes wrong or the crust burns, simply sprinkle plenty of salty seasoned seaweed powder to instantly improve the flavor.
Recommended for
- Those who want to recreate the long, stretchy cheese kimchi rice seen on TV at home.
- People looking to enjoy the contrast of crispy crust and rich, savory cheese instead of regular kimchi fried rice.
- Home cooks wanting to turn basic ingredients—fresh kimchi and leftover rice—into a more special and delicious snack-style meal.
