Tips for Making Bibimbap Casserole with Ground Pork:
1) Sticky Rice. Don’t judge, but get either rice from your favorite local restaurant or purchase a few 90 second microwave sticky rice pouches. SO MUCH EASIER than trying to make homemade sticky rice. If you do want to make it at home, let me know how it turns out!
2) Ground Pork. Let the pork come to room temperature before cooking. It helps take the chill off.
3) Vegetables. You can use any assortment of veggies you have on hand! It’s a great casserole to empty out the fridge.
4) Eggs. If you want to keep this dairy free you can certainly omit the eggs altogether.
What’s Gochujang?
It’s a Korean hot pepper paste! You can find it in Asian markets or some grocery stores. If you can’t find it try using Sambal Oelek which is a fresh chili paste instead!
Can I Make this Casserole Meatless or Change the Protein?
Absolutely! You can make the casserole without any protein. Just simply omit. If you want to change up the protein try ground beef, chicken, or turkey. Tofu works as well too!
Do I have to use Sticky Rice?
Nope! Brown rice would be awesome or even cauliflower rice to keep things low carb!
Hope you enjoy this recipe! If you do make it please let me know! Love hearing from you!
In conclusion, Bibimbap Casserole with Ground Pork offers a harmonious blend of flavors and textures, creating a comforting and satisfying meal that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy!
