Recipe 🍳
- In a bowl, mix 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon gochugaru, toasted sesame seeds, sesame oil, and corn syrup to make a special seasoning sauce.
- Add cold or warm rice to the prepared seasoning and mix well so the rice is evenly coated.
- Finely chop the green onion and minari into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat a pan, add usamgyeop and green onion, sprinkle a little salt, and fry until the meat releases enough savory oil.
- Add the chopped minari to enhance the aroma, then add the pre-seasoned rice, spread it flat, and press lightly while stir-frying until the rice is fluffy and slightly crispy.
- Make a seasoning sauce with soy sauce, gochugaru, corn syrup, etc., and mix it with the rice beforehand.
- In a pan, stir-fry usamgyeop, green onion, and salt to render the savory meat oil.
- Add minari and the pre-mixed rice in order, and stir-fry everything together.
Cooking tips 💡
- Pre-mixing the rice with seasoning before frying prevents the grains from clumping and gives a fluffy texture.
- At the end, spread the rice thinly in the pan and press gently so the bottom gets slightly crispy, maximizing the flavor of the meat oil.
