Kimchi Style Fried Rice

Kimchi Style Fried Rice

I am obsessed with fermented foods. Especially sauerkraut and kimchi. I can eat ridiculous amounts in one day. I crave the spicy, sour crunch! Well I was really craving kimchi fried rice but I had no kimchi! I decided to try something a little different and guess what? It totally worked. So damn good. A simple and quick dish you can make with fresh cooked rice or leftover rice! You can absolutely use cauliflower rice as well, fresh or frozen.
