  • dried anchovy stock 400cc (2 cups)
  • toasted sesame oil 1 tablespoon
  • green onion half bunch
  • green chili pepper 1 piece
  • red chili pepper 1 piece
  • egg 1 piece

Recipe 🍳

  1. Place leftover or instant rice directly into a clay pot.
  2. Pour in 400cc (2 cups) of dried anchovy stock and turn on the heat to boil.
  3. Once the broth comes to a boil and the rice grains have absorbed the liquid, drizzle in 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil.
  4. Add an appropriate amount of cleaned canned oysters and simmer for 2 minutes.
  5. Top with green onion sliced into 5cm pieces, finely chopped green chili pepper, and red chili pepper.
  6. Crack 1 raw egg into the pot, turn off the heat, and let the residual heat cook the egg and oysters to finish.
  1. Add leftover rice and dried anchovy stock to a clay pot and bring to a boil.
  2. Once boiling, add 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil and canned oysters, then simmer for 2 more minutes.
  3. 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.
