RICE, RICE BABY!
Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 150ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and steam for 10 minutes. On completion, drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork.
MISO MIXTURE
While the rice is cooking, place the Gochujang in a bowl. Add the miso paste, the soy sauce, a sweetener of choice (to taste), and 30ml of water. Mix until fully combined.
SESAME SAUTÉ
Place a pan over a medium-high heat with the sesame oil. When hot, add the shredded Spinach and the Cabbage chunks and fry for 3-4 minutes until wilted, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion. Season to taste and toss through ½ the sesame seeds.
SIZZLING CHOPS
Return the pan to a medium-high heat, wiped down if necessary, with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sear the chops for 2-3 minutes per side until cooked through or to your preference. On completion, baste the chops with the miso-Gochujang mixture and leave to reduce for 1-2 minutes until slightly reduced.
