Kimbap with short grain rice, nori and pickled radish — Korea recipe

Kimbap

The Korean seaweed rice roll built for lunchboxes and picnics: short-grain rice seasoned with sesame oil, rolled in a sheet of gim with strips of yellow pickled radish, carrot, spinach, egg, and crab, then sliced into rounds. It looks like sushi, but the sesame-oil rice makes it nutty and savoury, and every filling is cooked or pickled, so it travels and keeps.

Salmon Poke Bowl

The Hawaiian classic: cubes of raw, sushi-grade salmon marinated in soy, sesame oil, and scallion, served cold over rice with avocado, edamame, cucumber, and sesame. Everything comes down to the fish — sashimi-grade salmon, cut clean and marinated briefly so it stays silky rather than curing into something firm.

Salmon Rice Bowl

The viral salmon rice bowl: flaked cooked salmon over warm short-grain rice, revived with an ice cube steamed under nori, then dressed with Kewpie mayo, soy, and sriracha and topped with avocado. It started as a way to turn leftover salmon into something better than the original, and it's become a lunch in its own right — savoury, creamy, and ready in minutes.

Kimchi Fried Rice with kimchi, short grain rice and gochujang — Korea recipe

Kimchi Fried Rice

The definitive Korean way to use up sour kimchi and day-old rice: the kimchi is fried until it caramelises, seasoned with gochujang, tossed with cold rice, and topped with a runny fried egg. It's a five-minute weeknight plate built entirely from fridge and pantry staples, and it lives or dies on how fermented the kimchi is.
