Ingredients
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
- 1/2 onion
- 1 tomato
- 1/2 cup kimchi
- 150 g raw beef slices
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 bowl cooked white rice
- 2 eggs
- 2 slices yellow cheese
Instructions
- 1Add Onions and Tomatoes
Pour some oil into a preheated clay pot, then add the sliced onions and peeled tomatoes. Sauté them briefly until they begin to soften and release their flavors.
Tip: Ensure the pot is properly preheated so the vegetables start sizzling immediately. - 2Add Kimchi and Beef
Add the kimchi and raw beef slices directly into the pot along with the sautéed onions and tomatoes.
Tip: Spread the beef slices evenly so they cook uniformly with the kimchi. - 3Season the Ingredients
Add a spoonful of sugar, followed by moderate amounts of soy sauce and oyster sauce. Stir everything together well to combine the seasonings with the meat and vegetables.
Tip: Adjust the soy sauce and oyster sauce to your preferred level of saltiness. - 4Add Rice
Once the meat and kimchi mixture is cooked, place a bowl of cooked rice right into the center of the pot.
Tip: Pack the rice tightly in the bowl before turning it out so it holds its shape in the pot. - 5Cook the Eggs
In a separate pan, add oil and pour in the beaten egg mixture. Gently scramble the eggs to achieve a soft and tender texture.
Tip: Keep the heat low when scrambling to ensure the eggs stay soft and creamy. - 6Add the Eggs
Carefully slide the soft scrambled eggs from the pan directly onto the mound of rice in the clay pot.
Tip: Do this quickly while the eggs and the pot contents are still piping hot. - 7Add Cheese and Melt
Place two slices of yellow cheese over the soft scrambled eggs. Cover the pot with its lid and let it sit for a minute or two until the residual heat melts the cheese completely.
Tip: Cover the lid tightly to let the residual heat melt the cheese completely over the eggs.
