Instructions
- Make the pickles - sliced carrots and cabbage each packed tight into their own bell jar with chopped scallions, grated clove of garlic and grated ginger. Mix together the rice vinegar, red vinegar, gochujang, fish sauce, chile paste, and a teaspoon of salt. Microwave this mixture until very hot and pour into the jars. If they aren't full to the very top, top them off with a little water. Seal and set aside for anywhere from an hour to a couple weeks. Refrigerate after the first hour or so.
- Marinade the fish in the sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Grill it on all sides for only a few minutes or less depending on how thick the pieces are. While you are grilling, go ahead and grill off whatever other veggies you plan to use. We had red bell peppers and zucchini.
- Get your clay pots into a cold oven and turn it up to 450.
- Rinse a short grain rice and add it to a pot plenty of water. Bring to a boil, and simmer for about 10 minutes until tender. Taste it along the way so you don't overcook it. Strain.
- When the pots have come to temperature, brush with a little sesame oil and then add in the cooked rice. Press the rice up against the bowls so there is space in the center to put all the veggies, but be careful, the bowls are super hot! Put the bowls back into the oven just for about 7 minutes, only to ensure that the rice will have plenty of heat and time to crisp up.
- Now all you have to do is load in all the veggies and fish, and fry up a quick egg to go up top.
