Print Recipe

A bold and flavorful Korean-inspired rice stack featuring spicy kimchi fried rice, tender marinated bulgogi beef, and a crispy fried egg with a runny yolk—layered and garnished with scallions and sesame seeds for an impressive meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Rice:
  • 2 cups cooked short-grain rice
  • 1/3 cup chopped kimchi
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil
  • For the Bulgogi Beef:
  • 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • Black pepper to taste
  • For Topping:
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives or scallions
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon neutral oil for frying

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and black pepper. Add beef slices and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat neutral oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped kimchi and sauté for 1–2 minutes.
  3. Add the cooked rice and gochujang to the skillet and stir-fry until well mixed and heated through. Finish with a drizzle of sesame oil and set aside.
  4. In another hot skillet, cook marinated beef in batches over high heat until browned and caramelized.
  5. Fry an egg sunny-side up in a small pan with neutral oil until the whites are crisp and the yolk remains runny.
  6. To assemble: use a ring mold or small bowl to shape the rice on a plate. Top with bulgogi beef slices and drizzle any extra sauce over the top.
  7. Place the fried egg on top and garnish with chopped chives or scallions and toasted sesame seeds.
  8. Serve hot and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, sear the rice stack base briefly before topping.
  • Adjust gochujang to preferred spice level.
  • Use a ring mold for clean stacking, or shape freehand for a rustic look.
  • Optional: add pickled vegetables or nori strips for extra flair.
