Since my family includes a devastatingly picky 14 year old daughter who is “allergic” to the slightest hint of spice, and a perpetually hungry 17 year old son who really just wants to eat spaghetti with red sauce every night, I opted NOT to answer the “what's for dinner?” question with “Kimchi Fried Rice.” Instead, I called it “Bacon Fried Rice with Fried Eggs,” and wouldn't you know that they responded with moderately guarded enthusiasm, as opposed to the eye-rolling outrage I get with some of my less “normal” answers? And they both ATE IT UP, literally. Note to parents: marketing matters, and if you can incorporate the words “bacon,” “fried” and even “rice” into what's for dinner, your teenagers will probably accept it. So I call that a success. I LOVED it, by the way, and will definitely be making it again.

Thanks, m'dear.

Bacon + kimchi + fried rice + fried eggs = incredibly brilliant. Maybe the best fried rice I've made.

We have a local farm that uses their veggies to make kimchi, and it worked beautifully with this!

About to eat it now. Used my new cast iron pan (actually an old one my mom got from a garage sale) from christmas for the first time!
Also, first time commenting but I love Love LOVE your blog, and your book!!!!

Boyfriend, who normally waits for me to eat (as hospitality peeps we do this) says he already dug in.

Also, we added minced carrots, after the bacon was done, and scrambled the egg in there before the rice. With homemade kimchi 🙂

After making this about once every two weeks (ok, sometimes once a week, if I'm being honest) for the last few months as my go-to lazy meal, I feel compelled to thank you for bringing it into my life! I've started adding cubed baked tofu a few minutes after the kimchi is added, and it works great.
