JASMINE RICE
Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
SEED SPRINKLES
Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until they pop, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
MEATY SHROOMS
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced mushrooms until golden, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and season.
FLAVOURFUL VEG
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated Ginger and ¾ of the sliced spring onion until softened, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the cooked rice, ½ the chopped kimchi, the soy sauce, and the gochujang sauce (to taste). Fry until combined and coated, 2-3 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the sliced Cabbage, the grated carrot, the edamame beans, and the cooked mushrooms. Fry until the cabbage is wilted but still crunchy, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and season.
OPTIONAL EGG
Place a nonstick pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Crack in 1 egg (optional) and fry until cooked through to your preference. We like the yolk runny and the white just set! Remove from the heat and season.
