Bibimbap

Bibimbap

My version of the Korean dish Bibimbap.

Ingredients:
Rice.
Cucumber cut in to strips.
Red bell pepper cut in to strips.
Carrots shredded.
Spinach chopped.
Mushrooms sauteed.
Tofu cut in to thin strips and pan-fried *optional

Kochujang Sauce:
2 TBSP fermented red pepper paste (available at Asian grocer)
1 clove minced garlic
1 TBSP rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
1 TBSP tamari
2 tsp maple syrup

Directions:
Place a mound of rice in a large bowl.
Line the bowl with the vegetables.
Top with tofu and sauce.
Mix well before eating.

Notes
I generally make a double batch of the sauce.
Top with an egg cooked however you like in place of the tofu.
