Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Cut it into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Fry the Tofu

    In a non-stick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and season with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

  3. 3

    Fry the Eggs

    In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the eggs are frying, chop the scallions and prepare the kimchi and pickled cucumber.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Bibimbap

    In serving bowls, divide the cooked rice. Top each bowl with the fried tofu, kimchi, pickled cucumber, fried egg, and chopped scallions.

  6. 6

    Add Sauce and Serve

    Drizzle each bowl with soy sauce and gochujang. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Serve hot and enjoy!
