Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked and cooled short-grain white rice
- 1 cup chopped kimchi
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil divided
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 green onions thinly sliced
- 2 large eggs
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Blackstone grill over medium low heat (approximately 350 degrees F).
- Add the vegetable oil onto the griddle and use your spatula to spread it around.
- Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the chopped kimchi and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kimchi is lightly caramelized, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the cooked rice, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil to the Blackstone grill. Stir-fry the mixture, breaking up any clumps of rice, until the rice is heated through and slightly crispy, about 5-6 minutes.
- Stir in the sliced green onions and remove the kimchi fried rice from the grill.
- Clean off the griddle and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Fry the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.
- Divide the kimchi fried rice between two bowls and top each serving with a fried egg.
- Serve the Simple Kimchi Fried Rice hot, garnished with additional sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
It would be best to use day-old rice in this recipe. Using day-old, cooled rice helps prevent the fried rice from becoming mushy, as the grains are slightly drier and separate more easily.
The salt in the recipe is intended for seasoning just the eggs. Due to the saltiness of the soy sauce, additional salt for the rice mixture may not be necessary. Taste the rice mixture before adding any extra salt and adjust as needed.
Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.
