Rice Cooker Korean Mandu Rice

02/19/2024 by Ume

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This rice is flavorful from soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and a layer of tasty Korean mandu. In just 5 minutes all of the ingredients are in the rice cooker ready to go! It’s quite possibly one of the fastest prep meals I’ve ever made which is why it’s a staple weeknight dinner.

Variations + Substitutions

Gluten-free – Replace the soy sauce in this recipe with gluten-free tamari.
Additions – Chopped up jalapenos work well for extra flavor and a little spice. I like sprinkling extra green onion, sesame seeds, and gochugaru on top of the rice.
Egg – One of my favorite ways to enjoy this rice is with a fried runny egg on top.

Tips

My favorite mandu comes from bibigo. I consistently use the pork and vegetable mandu, but the beef are equally delicious.
