비빔밥 (bibimbap)
One of the most popular Korean dishes, bibimbap consists of a bowl of rice topped with fresh and cooked vegetables and red chili pepper paste. Everything is mixed together before eating which one mashes up with a spoon, stirring in your preferred quantity of gochujang (고추장 chili sauce). Seasoned raw beef, grilled beef, or a fried egg can also be added. Literally means "mixed rice", which is a pretty good description. Particularly tasty is dolsot bibimbap (돌솥비빔밥), served in a piping hot stone bowl that cooks the rice to a crisp on the bottom and edges.
