Korean bowl dish bibimbap. Roni Lehti

When the chef Risto Mikkola once he had bibimbap on his trip to Korea, he was sold. Bibimbap, or Korean hot pot, is a classic of bowl dishes.

According to Mikkola, the chili sauce of the dish is the soul of the whole dish. It is rich and delicious.

Bibimbap and kimchi (fermented Chinese cabbage) are perhaps the most famous Korean dishes.

There is one important point when eating bibimbap: all the ingredients must be mixed together. Bibimbap means rice and vegetables mixed.

This is how you cook the perfect jasmine rice

When cooking jasmine or basmati rice, first rinse the rice three times. Boil 3 dl of water and add 2.5 dl of rice to it.

Boil the rice and at the same time swirl it with a ladle so that the rice does not stick to the bottom of the pot.

Put the lid on and heat the plate to number one. The rice cooks evenly and the water is absorbed into the rice. Now you must not stir the rice anymore, so that it does not become a paste.

Simmer for about 25 minutes.
