Best Savory Kimchi Oatmeal Bowl Recipes

Savoury Kimchi Oatmeal With Avocado & Egg image

Provided by Carrie Walder

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup rolled oats
1 Tbsp chia seeds
1 cup vegetable broth ((+extra if needed))
1 large egg
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 serving vegetable of choice: broccolini, spinach, kale, etc.
2 Tbsp kimchi ((use vegan kimchi if needed))
1/4-1/2 an avocado, sliced
Black pepper, to taste
Optional: pumpkin or hemp seeds to sprinkle on top

Steps:

In a saucepan, combine rolled oats, chia seeds, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook and stir for about 5-7 minutes, or until the liquid has absorbed. If you want thinner oats, add additional small amounts of broth until desired consistency is reached.
At the same time, heat a skillet over medium with olive oil. Sauté veggies of choice (e.g. broccolini, spinach, kale, or zucchini) for ~7 minutes, until tender.
While the oats and veggies cook, you'll also want to cook the egg. You may choose to prepare the egg however you want, but I highly recommend having a runny yolk (e.g. poached, fried, soft-boiled). I have an in-depth blog post all about how to poach an egg if you're in need of some tips!
Once all ingredients are done, serve the oatmeal in a bowl. Top with sautéed veggies, the cooked egg, avocado slices, kimchi, and black pepper. Stir everything together and enjoy immediately.

Yield Makes 1 bowl

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup water (or 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup vegetable broth for more flavor)
Sea salt
1/2 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if necessary)
3 teaspoons olive oil
2 cups spinach
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 egg
1/2 cup kimchi, store-bought or homemade
Sliced avocado
1 tablespoon hemp seeds
Hot sauce (optional)

Steps:

Bring the water and a pinch of salt to a boil in a small or medium saucepan over high heat, then add the oats. Turn the heat down to a simmer and let the oats simmer uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes. When the oats have cooked to your taste, remove from the heat and set them aside in the pot.
In a medium saucepan, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil. Add the spinach and a pinch each of red pepper flakes, sea salt, and pepper and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, until the spinach is slightly wilted. Place the oats in a bowl and top with the spinach.
In the same saucepan, heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and add the egg. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes over medium-high heat, until the egg is golden around the edges and cooked to your liking. Place the egg in the bowl with the oats and spinach. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the kimchi to the bowl and top the bowl with a few slices of avocado and the hemp seeds. Season with sea salt and pepper to taste and add a hot sauce drizzle if you like.
