Cooking tips

  • Do not add the entire ramen seasoning packet at once—use only half and adjust seasoning gradually to avoid oversalting.
  • Use cold, unheated instant rice so that when stirred with a spatula, the grains don’t clump and remain fluffy and separate.
  • Adding butter at the end helps mellow the sharpness of the kimchi and maximizes overall flavor richness.

Recommended for

  • Beginners who often fail to get the right taste in kimchi fried rice.
  • Students living alone who want restaurant-quality flavor using minimal convenience store ingredients.
  • Those who love the bold umami of ramen seasoning and the rich, creamy taste of butter.
