Bibimbap is a tasty alternative for those who are craving for Korean food but still want “healthy” tag attached to their food. Forget those oily pork belly and go for this Korean delight bursting in colors.

Garlic and sesame oil always stand out in Korean dishes. I tossed them together with blanched beansprout and one handful of spinach while I saute two zucchini and carrot separately. And look at those stunning shitake mushroom and refreshing crunchy cucumber. They are all part of the equation.

Ready to eat, I added the red spicy bean paste (gochujang) and toss. I could hardly wait as I placed one heaped spoonful into my drooling mouth. As I scooped my way towards the bottom of the bowl, I wished it would never come to an end…
