My recent post about the Simply Cook recipe box review (Simply Cook is Simply Lush) focused on the gorgeous Thai Red Prawn Curry I was able to make with my the Simply Cook recipe box I received for trial. It was gorgeous, as I’m sure you gathered from the post, but it was a safe choice on my part because I already knew I loved Thai red curry.

I was feeling a little more adventurous last night, so plumped for something I’d never heard of – Bokkeumbap.

The picture looked tasty so I thought I’d give it a go, I already had all the ingredients needed, so it was lovely that I didn’t have to shop in order to cook such a fancy dish.
According to the recipe card, Bokkeumbap means fried rice. We’re a hungry bunch in our house so we made a little more rice than the recipe suggested, but I don’t think it diluted the flavour in any way. I also went to town on the veg because I wanted a healthy feast.

The recipe suggests 1/2 a white cabbage, 3 spring onions and any veg or leftovers you need to use up. We had no leftovers to add but I did have some veg that I thought would complement the ingredients. I added some kale, some thinly cooked carrot strips and a couple of shallots too.
The method was super simple, I had to add little pots of flavouring at different times in the cooking process, but as it was quite a basic stir fry method, it involved nothing more taxing than stirring.
My egg-frying needs some practice, but my fiance has perfected the art and got a picture that actually resembled the recipe card for me. Look at his handy work!

Wow this looks yum (and easy? dare is say 🙂 ) I’ll look into this… #familyfunlinky
I must say it does sound and look really tasty. I am always unsure about cooking fried rice dishes cause I am useless at cooking rice. I should probably just try again though. I love trying different food and this looks like something we’d all enjoy. Thanks for joining us at #familyfun x
