Bibimbap…it’s what’s for dinner

The Spawn and I watched a Bobby Flay show this morning in which he and his guest made bibimbap. As the Spouse has been muttering about bulgogi lately, I thought that bibimbap might be a good thing to make for dinner.

Never mind that I’ve never made it before.

Never mind that I didn’t bother to look at a recipe. I saw the show, right?

I have no idea whether it was authentic or not but, damn, it was good:

The rice is hiding underneath all that yumminess but you can see the other ingredients. Starting with the meat and moving clockwise, we have bulgogi, kim chi, marinated fresh zucchini, sesame bean sprouts, and then the fried egg and sauce in the middle.

I served it with a Bittman-inspired hack at a Korean-style cucumber salad:

All in all, it was a wonderful meal!
