Seungwoo Dad's Eomuk and Enoki Mushroom Rice Bowl

A super simple and budget-friendly rice bowl made by stir-frying thin square fish cakes and the spicy kick of cheongyang chili peppers in chili oil, then adding egg for a moist finish.

🙋 Recommended for

  • Those who want to deliciously use up leftover square eomuk and enoki mushrooms in the fridge.
  • Those who want a hearty, textured meal with minimal ingredients on a tight budget.
  • Those who love the clean, spicy kick of cheongyang chili peppers and chili oil in their rice bowls.

Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • 2 sheets square eomuk
  • 1/2 pack enoki mushrooms
  • 1/2 onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 cheongyang chili pepper
  • 1 red chili pepper
  • 1 egg
  • some chili oil
  • appropriate amount of soy sauce seasoning
  • 1 bowl rice

Recipe 🍳

  1. Thinly slice the square eomuk into strips, as they will swell when absorbing the sauce.
  2. Thinly slice the onion, slice the garlic, chop the chili peppers, and separate the enoki mushrooms into individual strands.
  3. Heat a pan with cooking oil and chili oil, then add the sliced onion and stir-fry until translucent.
  4. Once the onion is cooked, add the sliced garlic, chili peppers, and sliced eomuk. Stir-fry until the aroma of chili oil permeates.
  5. Finally, add the enoki mushrooms and stir-fry briefly just until wilted, to prevent them from becoming tough.
  6. Pour in the prepared sweet and salty soy sauce, bring to a gentle boil, then optionally swirl in beaten egg to cook softly. Serve over rice.
  1. In a pan with chili oil, stir-fry onion, then add thinly sliced eomuk, garlic, and chili peppers.
  2. Add enoki mushrooms and stir-fry briefly, then pour in soy sauce and bring to a boil.
  3. Drizzle in beaten egg, cook lightly, and spoon over rice. Finish with a little extra chili oil if desired.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Since eomuk is already a pre-fried processed food, it doesn't need long cooking—just enough to coat with seasoning.
  • Overcooking enoki mushrooms makes them tough and watery, so add them at the very end and cook only until slightly wilted.
  • If the dish looks a bit dull, swirl in a bit of red chili oil at the end for color and an extra spicy kick.
