Korean Kimchee fried rice


Sometimes I need some extra variety at work. This pao tsai chao fan (kimchee fried rice) is really excellent. Not fiery hot, but with a good amount of kimchee flavor mixed in. The nori on top adds a nice salty-ness. You can see the extra kimchee in the back right of the box. In front of that is bean sprouts in sesame oil. And in front of that is seaweed and carrots. It tastes a little sweet and a little sour - I think it is sort of pickled. In the back is a basic dashi soup with big chunks of seaweed floating in it. They also give you some ginseng tea with the meal. After I eat this, I always feel very full but very good.
