What is bibimbap? The Korean word “bibimbap” translates to “mixed rice” and is traditionally a dish comprised from leftover vegetables, rice, protein component all held together by a Gochujang (korean fermented red chilli paste) sauce.
I’ve created this VEGAN BIBIMBAP using a plant-based mince as my protein sauce, and a delicious homemade bulgogi marinade to season it.
Here is the recipe:
