Instructions

• 1 Prepare Ingredients: If you haven't done so already, cook the rice and let it
  cool. Day-old rice works best for fried rice. Chop the kimchi and prepare the
  mixed vegetables.
• 2 Sauté Aromatics : In a large pan or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high
  heat. Add minced garlic and onion, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.
• 3 Cook Protein: Add the diced protein (chicken, pork, ground beef, tofu, bacon, or
  ham, anything really) to the pan and cook until browned and fully cooked.
• 4 Add Kimchi: Stir in the chopped kimchi and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing
  the flavors to meld.
• 5 Fry Rice: Add the cooked rice to the pan, breaking up any clumps. Stir-fry for
  3-4 minutes until the rice is well-coated and slightly crispy.
• 6 Flavor with Sauce: Pour soy sauce, gochujang, sweet soy sauce, sesame oil over
  the rice. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the flavors.
• 7 Final Touch: Add chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish, stirring to
  combine.
• 8 Optional Topping: Top with a fried egg for each serving if desired.
• 9 Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Kimchi Fried Rice!
