Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice
  • 5 ounces baby spinach (5 cups)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 3 carrots, cut into thin matchsticks
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 4 scallions, white and green parts separated and thinly sliced
  • 3/4 pound shiitake mushrooms, trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 1 English cucumber, cut into thin matchsticks
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • Sriracha sauce, for serving

Directions

  1. In a medium pot, cook rice according to package instructions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, bring 2 cups water to a boil over high. Add spinach and cook, stirring constantly until wilted, about 30 seconds; drain. When cool enough to handle, squeeze spinach dry with a paper towel.

  2. Wipe out skillet; heat 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil over medium-high. Add carrots and cook until crisp-tender, 3 minutes. Add garlic and scallion whites and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add mushrooms and cook 4 minutes. Add cucumber and cook until softened, 3 minutes. Add spinach and soy sauce and stir to combine. Transfer vegetables to a bowl and wipe out skillet.

  3. Heat 3/4 teaspoon vegetable oil in skillet over medium-high. Add eggs, reduce heat to medium, and cook until whites are set and yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes. Divide rice among four bowls; top with vegetables and eggs. Drizzle each with sesame oil, sprinkle with scallion greens, and serve with Sriracha.

    This is so delicious and easy to make. I didn't have long grain rice on hand so I used basmati rice instead but was still wonderful.

    I'm so surprised that this hasn't been reviewed more! I enjoy ordering these at my local Korean restaurant and this is just as good - if not better - than the restaurant's.
    Two small changes...I served with brown rice and also served it with a side of sweet chili sauce. My other half doesn't like a lot of spicy things, but he can handle sweet! This is overall a winner and I would make this again. Ladies don't be afraid to make this, especially the vegetarians out there!

    Amazing flavors. A lot of chopping. I cheated with a bag of pre-shredded carrots. I made less rice. I also added more garlic and scallion and just steamed some baby spinach in a zip and steam bag.
