Recipe

Pour 1/2 cup of water into a small pot and add the washed bean sprouts, filling it as much as you like.
Close the lid and turn the heat to high, steaming the bean sprouts for about 30 seconds.
While the bean sprouts cook, mix gukganjang, perilla oil, minced garlic, and finely chopped green onions in a small bowl to make the seasoning sauce.
After 30 seconds, when steam rises vigorously, open the lid and tear open the unheated instant rice, placing it directly on top of the bean sprouts.
Cover again and heat on high for about 1 minute more, allowing the heat and steam from the bean sprouts to warm the instant rice.
After 1 minute, turn off the heat (or leave on low residual heat), pour the prepared seasoning sauce over the rice, and gently mix with a spatula from bottom to top to finish.

Add water to a pot until shallow, add bean sprouts generously, and steam over high heat for 30 seconds.
Place unheated instant rice on top of the bean sprouts, cover, and steam for another minute with the residual steam.
Turn off the heat, add the pre-made soy sauce and perilla oil seasoning, and gently mix in the residual heat.

Cooking tips

Since bean sprouts release a lot of water during cooking, adding only half a cup of water initially prevents the pot from burning and keeps everything moist.
