Bacon & Kimchi Fried Rice

  4. Cook the bacon until crisp. Remove and put in the bowl with the onions and eggs. (If you’re concerned about fat, remove the bacon fat from the wok, otherwise, add the rice and fry it, stirring occasionally until all clumps are broken down and the rice is heated, about five minutes.)

  5. Add the onions, eggs, bacon, and peas and fry until allingredients are mixed throughout the rice.

  6. Add the chopped kimchi and kimchi liquid, mixing thoroughly.

  7. Serve immediately.
