Korean Deopbap-Inspired Kimchi Mayo Rice

Kimchi Mayo Deopbap Korean Covered Rice

Korean Deopbap meets dolsot bibimbap and crunchy bottoms? I made this Korean Deopbap or ‘covered rice’ inspired kimchi mayo rice with a gochujang mayo sauce and cooked it in a ttukbaegi to get those nice crispy bottoms!

THE INSPIRATION: KOREAN TUNA MAYO DEOPBAP & DOLSOT BIBIMBAP

덮밥 or Deopbap means covered rice in Korean. Dolsot Bibimbap is basically bibimbap (mixed) served in a stone bowl (dolsot). A popular easy Korean meal is Tuna Mayo Deopbap which is put together by mixing rice, canned tuna, mayonnaise, roasted seaweed, fried egg, kimchi, corn, and other add-ins. It’s easily customisable and that’s what I love about mixed rice dishes such as this.

I fused the two together and made what I like to call a Kimchi Mayo Rice that I served in a ttukbaegi (Korean earthenware bowl) since I don’t have a stone bowl. I love dolsot bibimbap for its crispy bottoms so I had to make this rice and get the bottom crisp! A ttukbaegi works great to get those crispy bottoms too but of course you can use a dolsot or stone bowl if you have one.

The Gochujang Mayo beautifully coats the rice and also adds this nice richness to the dish. This is like a bibimbap in a way that everything’s mixed together and you can pretty much add in whatever you like.

INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED

Gochujang Mayo

I mixed together:

  • vegan mayo
  • gochujang
  • sesame oil

For the Deopbap

  • sesame oil
  • vegan ham or vegan luncheon meat, or other protein of choice!
  • cooked and cooled rice; leftover is best (I used short grain/sushi rice)
  • vegan kimchi (homemade kimchi recipe here)
  • soy sauce or to taste (optional)

FULL DETAILED RECIPE IS BELOW! 🙂

Other toppings/add-ins of choice

  • Corn kernels
  • Mushrooms
  • Other Korean banchan side dishes—really up to you!

To finish

  • Sesame seeds
  • Chopped spring onions or green onions
  • More sesame oil

HOW TO MAKE THIS DEOPBAP

  • Preheat your ttukbaegi or pot of choice. Once hot, add some oil and saute the ham or vegan luncheon meat. Remove from the pot.
  • Add more sesame oil. The oil will help get that nice crispy bottoms!
  • Add in the cooked rice. Spread over the bottom of the pan. Leave for 3-4 minutes over medium to medium high heat to allow the rice to crisp. Add the ham, kimchi, and other topping soy choice.Add in the gochujang mayo, spring onions, sesame seeds, and season with soy sauce, to taste if desired.

HOW TO ENJOY YOUR DEOPBAP

This is my personal preference! I like to open a pack of roasted seaweed and wrap some of the rice in it.

This is is easily customisable and that’s what I love about mixed rice dishes such as this. I fused both Korean deopbap and bibimbap and made what I like to call a Kimchi Mayo Rice. I love dolsot bibimbap for its crispy bottoms so I had to make this rice and get the bottom crisp! A ttukbaegi works great to get those crispy bottoms too but of course you can use a dolsot or stone bowl if you have one.The Gochujang Mayo beautifully coats the rice and also adds this nice richness to the dish.
