First simmering radish and kelp to build rich umami flavor, then steaming cold rice, fresh oysters, and bean sprouts together for a vibrant, crisp, and chewy one-bowl dish.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Always use salted water instead of plain water when cleaning oysters to prevent damage and preserve their natural umami flavor.
  • Pre-boiling the firm radish with kelp for 4 minutes prevents the bean sprouts and oysters from becoming overcooked and tough.
  • The accumulated liquid from oysters and radish after steaming can make the rice sticky if mixed directly—always pour it off before mixing with the sauce for a smoother, richer texture.
  • The reserved oyster broth is deeply flavorful and refreshing—don’t discard it; use it as a base for soups or stews.

Recommended for

  • Those looking to make a warm, satisfying one-bowl meal using leftover rice.
  • People who want to enjoy the contrasting textures of bean sprouts and fresh oysters together.
