Basic Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 fresh eggs
- 2 plump pollack roe (mentaiko)
- 1 handful of fragrant perilla leaves (kkaennip)
- 1 handful of crisp lettuce
- 1 handful of tender baby greens
- A little bit of seasoned seaweed flakes (gim)
- 2 servings of warm cooked rice
- Sesame oil, to taste
- Sesame seeds, to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the fried eggs. You can adjust the doneness to your preference, whether sunny-side up or over-hard. A sunny-side up egg with a runny yolk will envelop the rice and other ingredients in a delightful richness.
Step 2
Make a shallow lengthwise slit in the center of the pollock roe. Then, using the thin edge of a spoon, gently scrape out only the roe from inside the membrane. Using just the roe, rather than the whole sac, results in a smoother and cleaner taste.
Step 3
Wash the fresh perilla leaves and lettuce thoroughly, pat them dry, and then thinly julienne them into bite-sized pieces. The crisp texture of the vegetables will enhance the overall flavor of the bibimbap.
Step 4
Cut the ripe, soft avocado in half. Insert a knife down to the pit and twist gently to separate the halves. Perfectly ripe avocados can often be peeled easily by hand, making preparation convenient.
Step 5
Remove the pit from the peeled avocado and thinly slice it about 0.5 cm thick. Slicing them too thinly might cause them to break apart, so maintaining a moderate thickness is recommended.
Step 6
Place the warm cooked rice attractively in a bowl. Arrange the julienned perilla leaves, lettuce, baby greens, sliced avocado, fried egg, and prepared pollock roe around the rice. Finally, drizzle with a bit of sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds to complete this visually appealing and incredibly delicious Pollock Roe and Avocado Bibimbap!
