Okay soo in korean dramas/movies
i guess there's always this one part where
a character mixes rice and a whole other bunch of good stuff in a big bowl..
and when the finish mixing it, it's red/orange.. It sounds like they just mixed kimchi and rice..
so the question is...
What exactly did they mix in the bowl with rice?
Is there a specific name for it?


Whenever i see them eat that it makes me really really crave for it <3

pretty sure you're talking about bibimbap

its mixing rice and some vegetables and some meat
and some gochujang. its called bibimbap

oh i want to know too.
i was impressed by it while watching "Kim Sam Soon"
does it have a recipe?

It's bimbimbap.
You add some rice, veggies, meat, and a fried egg. And lots of pepper paste.
Basicall, you can add anything you have laying around the house.
It's a yummy way to get rid of leftovers. haha

Oh i never knew it was called bimbimbap?
Lol i thought that bimbimbap was like the korean sushi roll.
hmm well thanx for replying i think i'm going to make some now =)

Lol, that's kimbap. XD

those look so yum
i want some now D:
i should get off the food section
its getting me so hungry!

i want some bibimbap now T_T
bibim: mix
bap: rice
bibimbap: mixed rice
8D

leftovers lol

bibimbap is the equivalent of chinese fried rice i think

but if you are a foreigner and can't eat other korean food, it is a good choice

^ i dont think bibimbap can be called fried rice because you dont fry it. it's just mixed rice.

actually isn't the dolsot bibimbap(?) cooked in a hot stone pot where the rice in the bottom becomes fried?

it isn't fried. it turns hot because of the hot stone. the hard rice is called "noorungji"

fried is when something is cooked in burning oil.

and fried rice in korean would be called "bokkeum bap"

orenji bubbles

well yeah it isn't technically fried like frying french freis or rice.

but dolsot bibimbob has some oil at the bottom to give that crispiness. and then you mix the ingredients like how you mixed fried rice. to me, it just feel like fried rice lol

yeah i know what bokkeum bap is. hmm, they put kimchi and sometimes cheese in it

anyways i prefer dolsot bibimbap

^; Me too I prefer Dolsot bibimbap.
I want some right now.

uhm. alright then.
it turns crispy, but i still dont think it's like fried rice. but you're entitled to your own opnion ^^;
i just think of frying rice in a fry pan when i think of fried rice, so bibimbap and fried rice are very different to me.

^ yeah it's definetely not fried.

bibimbap is totally different from bokeumbap,
the only difference between the two is that bokeumbap is fried and bibimbap isnt..., lol
