Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need

• 2 cups Mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon Gochujang paste
• 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
• A pinch of Salt & Pepper
• 1 cup jasmine rice

For equipment, we’re looking at a simple setup: a saucepan for the rice, and a saut�� pan for the mushrooms.

The star of this dish is the Gochujang paste, it brings the heat and adds depth to our dish. Now, if gochujang isn’t easily accessible you could replace it with Sriracha sauce, but you’ll be missing out on some unique flavor. The sesame oil also steps up with its nutty aroma to complement the spiciness.

How To Make Gochujang Mushroom Bowls

1. First off, start by washing the rice thoroughly, then cook it following the packet instructions.
2. As the rice gets cozy in the pot, let’s turn our attention to the mushrooms. Slice them up, heat up the saut�� pan, add a bit of sesame oil, and toss in these sliced mushrooms.
3. Once the mushrooms start to brown and release their juices, add your gochujang paste and mix until they’re nicely coated.
4. Next up, season it with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a dash of soy sauce. Give it all a good stir.
5. To serve, divide the cooked rice into two bowls. Scoop over your saut��ed mushrooms, add your favorite garnish, and voila! Your Gochujang Mushroom Bowls are ready to serve.
