Radish Salad and rice topped with a fried egg makes a quick rice bowl in a hurry.

I am in love with Korean radish. They are sweeter and crunchier than any radish I have tasted. That means it is perfect to make salad, and I like to enjoy my radish salad in a rice bowl.

“Moo-sangchae (무생채)” is the popular Korean radish salad side dish that most Korean people love. It is easy to make and so delicious. You can make the salad in advance and store in the refrigerator for several days. Amazingly the radish will still hold the crisp crunchy texture after many days. Yup, that’s Korean radish!

This rice bowl is one of the simplest Bibimbap you can make with only one vegetable and it is oh-so-delicious!

Serving Suggestion

Build your rice bowl, simply rice, radish salad, and fried egg. That it! You can throw a spoonful of Korean chili paste if you like. I didn’t need for mine.

Mix it up like crazy and shove a spoonful into your mouth. You will love the taste and the texture. I guarantee that you will love this simple meat-free meal.

So hurry up and get a handsome looking Korean radish at the Korean store. They have pale green bottom with creamy white top, and shorter and chubbier than daikon radish. I am just describing the Korean radish to you in case you haven’t seen it before.
