Kimchi-Bokkeumbap (Kimchi Fried Rice)

 
Kimchi is a traditional fermented Korean side dish made of vegetables with a variety seasonings. For some people, it may take some time to actually enjoy it due to its strong flavors. It's sour and spicy, but it's really, really good. So today I was in the mood for some Kimchi and finally decided to make this Kimchi-Bokkeumbap (Kimchi Fried Rice).. and man it took me right back to that moment when I was in Seoul many years ago. Now while I'm walking down the memory lane over here, why don't you give this a try and let me know if you like it!
