Meals with rice are favorites at my house. Generally speaking, we use this ingredient on a daily basis, from deliciosa rice soups to rice pudding. After visiting one of the most famous restaurants in Los Angeles, I felt inspired to prepare a different dish. I made a riquísimo kimchi fried rice. Kimchi is one of the most popular foods in Korea. It has become a hit worldwide for its nutritional properties and fantastic sabor. For this recipe, you can venture out and try to prepare your own kimchi, or purchase it ready-made to save additional time. This recipe is ideal for those days when you have lots of time, or leftover rice on hand.
