Kimchi Fried Rice

The combination of kimchi and fried rice, also known as "Kimchi Bokkeumbap", is believed to have first appeared in the 1960s in South Korea, during a time of rapid economic growth and increasing globalization. As South Korea became more connected to the rest of the world, people began experimenting with new flavors and ingredients, and kimchi fried rice was born.

Fried rice, on the other hand, is believed to have originated in China around 4000 years ago. The dish quickly spread throughout Asia and eventually made its way to Korea, where it was adapted and transformed into a unique Korean dish.

I recommend using cast iron wok which has good heat retention.

  • Unfreeze any frozen vegetable before cooking.
  • Get wok over medium-high head and add the ground pork.

  • Season meat with black pepper and cook until the pork is no longer pink.
