🍲 Dolsot Bibimbap
Dolsot bibimbap is rice served in a sizzling hot stone bowl and topped with seasoned vegetables, sautéed beef and a fried egg, with spicy gochujang on the side. The rice in contact with the stone turns into a golden, crackling crust. Everything is mixed at the table so the sauce coats each grain, giving a dish that is crispy, savory and spicy at once.

Recipe
Ingredients
- 300 g cooked short-grain rice
- 150 g beef, thinly sliced
- 100 g spinach, blanched
- 100 g bean sprouts, blanched
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 1 zucchini, julienned
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp gochujang
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 garlic clove, salt
Method
- Sauté the beef with the garlic and a pinch of salt until browned.
- Season each vegetable lightly with salt and a few drops of sesame oil; sauté the carrot and zucchini briefly.
- Brush two stone bowls with the remaining sesame oil, add the rice and heat on the stove until it crackles, about 5 minutes.
- Arrange the vegetables and beef on top and crown with a fried egg.
- Serve sizzling with gochujang and mix well before eating.
How to make it lighter
- Keep the oil in the stone bowl to a thin brushing; 1 tbsp oil ≈ 120 kcal.
- Ask for less rice and more vegetables, or use a lean cut of beef.
- Add gochujang to taste rather than all at once, as it adds sugar and salt.
History
Bibimbap is a long-standing Korean mixed-rice dish, and the city of Jeonju is especially known for it. Serving it in a heated stone pot, or dolsot, is a more recent variation, prized for the crisp rice crust it creates.
