Vegetarian Bibimbap

  4.5 – 123 reviews  • Korean

I looked up a few different recipes online and took my favorites from each to create this one. This dish is vegetarian, but if you want to make it with beef or chicken instead, there are several bibimbap recipes with those marinades.

Total Time: 50 mins
Servings: 3
Yield: 3 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  2. 1 cup carrot matchsticks
  3. 1 cup zucchini matchsticks
  4. ½ (14 ounce) can bean sprouts, drained
  5. 6 ounces canned bamboo shoots, drained
  6. 1 (4.5 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
  7. ⅛ teaspoon salt to taste
  8. 2 cups cooked and cooled rice
  9. ⅓ cup sliced green onions
  10. 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  11. ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  12. 1 tablespoon butter
  13. 3 eggs
  14. 3 teaspoons sweet red chili sauce, or to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir carrot and zucchini in the hot oil until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, and mushrooms. Cook and stir until carrots are tender, about 5 more minutes. Season to taste with salt and set vegetables aside.
  2. Stir cooked rice, green onions, soy sauce, and black pepper in the same skillet until the rice is hot. In a separate skillet over medium heat, melt butter and gently fry eggs, turning once, until the yolks are still slightly runny but the egg whites are firm, about 3 minutes per egg.
  3. To serve, divide hot cooked rice mixture between 3 serving bowls and top each bowl with 1/3 of the vegetable mixture and a fried egg. Serve sweet red chili sauce on the side for mixing into bibimbap.

This is so delicious and filling and can be made a thousand ways with ingredients on hand. This is going on my rotation.
Elizabeth Porter
I made this for my family and they loved it!
Allison Wallace
This was a fun alternative dish that my family really enjoyed!
James Zimmerman
I made this for my husband, his picky Father and myself. It went over big even with picky father in law. they put some sweet chilli sauce on it, and said it was wonderful. If you wanted to add shrimp or shaved steak it would go most excellent. 5 star for sure
Brian Nelson
This is super easy, and very healthy. I made my rice, fried rice, which turned out really good. I had a few cherry tomatoes in the fridge, so I threw them on top. I also used my rice maker, which as a steamer basket, for the vegetables, which cut out some cooking time. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This is amazing! I was looking for a good bibimbap recipe and this fits the bill. I did add sriracha sauce and it was amazing
Deborah Rivera
I made too many substitutions (based on what was in the kitchen) to give this a fair review, but I liked how it turned out and appreciated having a jumping off point.

This is super good and very easy to make. My inly adjustments were minus the mushrooms (GF doesn’t like them) and I added another tbsp of soy sauce. You need to be mindful of any additional salt tho.

This is now a saved to be done again over and over recipe! Loved it! I’ve enjoyed bibimbap from ingredient supplied services in the past and liked it. I wanted to see if I could produce something equally good from a recipe … Well, heck yeah!!! My wife is allergic to onion and garlic, so I left out the green onions, and used a sambal oelek that was garlic free for the sweet red chili sauce.

love this

Don’t be intimidated! This is easy to make, and we found the ingredients easily at Jewel.
Karen Ramos
I love this recipe. I make it all the time.

I’m really sorry…but if you want authentic bibimbap, this isn’t it. Sweet red chili sauce is not Korean. Use gochujang or a gochujang-based sauce and you’ll have a better idea of the real flavor.
Jeffrey Simpson
but it has an egg
Debbie Lopez
Very tasty! I’ll be making this again! Thanks for sharing!
Julie Harrington
Easy, delicious, wouldn’t change a thing. My husband and I love this for a quick, healthy meal!
Kelly Martinez
The sesame oil and the sweet chili really make this dish shine! Great flavor, easy to serve over rice, pack, and take to work.
Ashley Robertson
Followed the recipe as written. Yummy!
Christopher Owens
Ran out of white rice so used brown. Was very yummy! Bought some of the hot pot bibimbap bowls and used them to serve…recommend! Also found a gochuchang sauce recipe online and that really punched up the dish.
Peter Chang
Not a whole lot of taste but the sweet chili sauce helped. Still liked it though as it’s a healthy meal.
William Wilson
Pretty interesting twist butt authentic is hard to recreate! but I think this is cool and its fun to see people exploring cultures. If you are looking for a westernized version then try this out!
