YUBU CHOBAB, soybean curd with rice, is a typical picnic Korean food along with Kimbob, Korean seaweed roll. It is easy and you don’t need a lot of ingredients : soybean curd, rice and whatever you have in the fridge!
Take out whatever you have in the fridge!
Finely chop every vegetable into small pieces
First, saute onion in a medium-low fire until it gets nice brown
Add all the vegetables in the order of the most hardest texture to the least (in my case, carrot → yellow bell pepper → zucchini)
Add finely chopped jalapeno depending on how spicy you want (I used a whole jalapeno because I love spicy food)
Add finely chopped ham and Sprinkle a pinch of black pepper (and salt if necessary, but since ham is usually salty i skipped it) for taste
Add one bowl of cooked rice and stir well until they are even mixed together
Fried soybean curd in package can be found easily in the refrigerator section of any Asian market. I used Korean brand but the brand does not really matter since we are just going to use the soybean curd, not the sauce or seasoning that is often included in the package
Take out fried soybean curd from the package and drain all the juice out
Fill fried rice into the pocket of he soybean curd gently
To make it healthy, I’ve used brown rice with farro and quinoa. You can substitute any of those listed ingredients to whatever you have in your fridge. To make it even healthier, you substitute ham to shrimp or tuna.
