Recipes with Sesame oil

Notes

You can add mushrooms (fresh or soaked dried mushrooms), peas, and/or tofu. Add them in before the kimchi to cook for a few minutes before continuing with the rest of the recipe. You can also mix in some whisked eggs, or a fried egg on top to serve.

Notes

Don't rush the soaking and cooking of the rice cakes (they are very chewy otherwise). You can use apple cider vinegar instead of rice vinegar. Top with an egg or some tofu for more protein.

Notes

You can use champignons instead of shiitake mushrooms. You can replace the eggs with some tofu. You can add other veggies in this if you have them on hand - bell peppers and daikon work really well.
