Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 clove garlic finely minced
  • 1/4 small onion finely diced
  • 1/2 cup kimchi cut into small pieces + 1 tablespoon kimchi juice
  • 2 cups overnight steamed white rice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 3 dashes ground black pepper
  • 1 stalk scallion cut into small rounds

Instructions

  • Heat up a wok or skillet on high heat. Add the oil. When the oil is fully heated, sauté the garlic and onion until aromatic. Add the kimchi and do a few quick stirs before adding the rice. Stir to combine well.
  • Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, black pepper and scallion. Stir a few times to blend with the rice. Dish out and serve immediately.
  • You can fry an egg sunny side up and serve the egg on top of the Kimchi fried rice.

Notes

I like my Kimchi Fried Rice spicy with lots of kimchi. Cut down on the kimchi if you like a milder taste. You can fry an egg, sunny side up and serve on top of the Kimchi Fried Rice.
