Main Ingredients

  • 3 stalks fresh young radish (yeolmu)
  • 1 bowl cooked rice
  • 1 can (90g) tuna, drained
  • 1 egg

Seasoning Sauce

  • 1 Tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 Tbsp maesilcheong (plum extract)
  • 0.5 Tbsp sesame oil

Cooking Instructions

Step 1

Begin by preparing your ingredients. While bibimbap is delicious with just young radish, adding tuna makes it even richer and more satisfying. Feel free to add other vegetables you enjoy for extra flavor and texture.

Step 1

Step 2

Wash the young radish thoroughly. Gently scrape off the outer skin from the root ends with a knife. Then, rinse the stalks under running water, shaking them gently to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with a paper towel or let them drain completely. Finally, chop the young radish into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

It’s crucial to drain the tuna well. Excess oil from the tuna can make the bibimbap greasy and soggy. Draining it thoroughly will ensure a clean and pleasant taste.

Step 3

Step 4

Prepare the seasoning sauce. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of gochujang and 1 tablespoon of maesilcheong. Mix well. If you don’t have maesilcheong, you can substitute it with oligodang (corn syrup), or for a tangier flavor, consider using chojang (spicy vinegar sauce) as your base.

Step 4

Step 5

Now, assemble your bibimbap. Place the warm cooked rice in a serving bowl. Top the rice generously with the prepared young radish and the drained tuna. Add a perfectly fried egg on top – cook it to your preference, whether you like a runny yolk (sunny-side up) or a fully cooked yolk (over hard).

Step 5

Step 6

Finish by drizzling 0.5 tablespoon of sesame oil over the ingredients for a fragrant aroma and rich flavor. This completes your delicious raw young radish bibimbap! Mix everything together thoroughly and enjoy your flavorful meal.
