Bibimbap

If you are a housewife or houseband... you can't avoid the stress of choosing the menu for your family. It's hard enough to cook... but to think of the food to prepare.. it's really a headache.

One of the easiest and convinient menu that I usually come up with is Bibimbap... bibim in Korean means mix and bap means rice... so literally, you mix rice with different ingridients. The reason it is convinient is that you can prepare the ingridients and let your family eat whenever and whatever they like. The ingridients are flexible, whatever you like or whatever is in your ref :)

Mushroom and Onion

My bibimbap had stir fried mushroom and onion, seasoned bean sprouts, fresh vegetable sprouts, lettuce, ground beef, fried egg, sesame oil, rice... and of course the most important thing is RED PEPPER PASTE!Some people might say it's too spicy but you can just put a little bit for taste... all the other ingridients are seasoned so it won't be too bland to eat.

Seasoned bean sprout (with chili powder)

If you love Gwyneth Paltrow... I think you will know that she lost weight by choosing bibimbap as her diet. So it's not just convient for housewives and housebands... but it's good for your diet. If you really want low calorie diet, you can omit the rice and just eat the mixed vegetables.

Bibimbap

So... if you decide to come to Korea or go to a Korean restaurant, you should try bibimbap.. which has different varieties but all the same, they are really good.
