4-6 ounces beef or pork
-
1 tsp minced garlic
-
2 tsps soy sauce
-
1 tsp rice wine or mirin
-
1 tsp sesame oil
-
1 cup thinly sliced kimchi (about 1/2 inch thick) preferably fully fermented
-
2 tbsps juice from kimchi
-
4 tbsps soy sauce for Sauce (Yangnyumjang)
-
2 tsps sesame oil for Sauce (Yangnyumjang)
-
1 tsp gochugaru, Korean red pepper flakes for Sauce (Yangnyumjang)
-
1 tsp sesame seeds for Sauce (Yangnyumjang)

1 tsp minced garlic for Sauce (Yangnyumjang)

1 tsp Sugar for Sauce (Yangnyumjang)

Rinse the rice. Drain. (This is to make sure the correct amount of water is added.) Place in a pot or rice cooker and add the exact amount of water (1:1 rice to water ratio). Let sit so the rice is soaked. Wash the soybean sprouts and drain well.
-
Cut the meat in small pieces and lightly season with the next 4 ingredients. Cut the kimchi into thin strips (about 1/2 inch). Heat a skillet with a tablespoon of oil over medium high heat. Stir-fry the kimchi for 2 - 3 minutes, adding some juice from kimchi to intensify the flavor, if available. Add the meat and stir-fry for another minute or two. (The meat doesn't need to be cooked through.)
-
Spread the soybean sprouts over the rice, followed by the stir-fried kimchi and meat. Start the rice cooker, or cook over the stovetop (see below).
-
While the rice is cooking, prepare the sauce by mixing all sauce ingredients.
-
When the rice is done, gently fluff up the rice, evenly distributing the sprouts, meat and kimchi. Serve with the sauce on the side.
