Recipe 🍳
- Place leftover or instant rice directly into a clay pot.
- Pour in 400cc (2 cups) of dried anchovy stock and turn on the heat to boil.
- Once the broth comes to a boil and the rice grains have absorbed the liquid, drizzle in 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil.
- Add an appropriate amount of cleaned canned oysters and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Top with green onion sliced into 5cm pieces, finely chopped green chili pepper, and red chili pepper.
- Crack 1 raw egg into the pot, turn off the heat, and let the residual heat cook the egg and oysters to finish.
- Add leftover rice and dried anchovy stock to a clay pot and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, add 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil and canned oysters, then simmer for 2 more minutes.
- Top with green onion, chili peppers, and egg, then finish cooking using residual heat.
Cooking tips 💡
- Coating the clay pot with a thin layer of toasted sesame oil prevents the broth from bubbling over and helps reduce the fishy smell of oysters.
- Oysters become tough if overcooked, so it's best to add them at the end and cook for only about 2 minutes.
- For extra richness, garnish with roasted seaweed powder or crushed sesame seeds according to taste.
