If you’re craving something fresh and vibrant this summer then look no further. This Korean Sashimi bowl (Hwe Dup Bap) requires minimal cooking and can be customized with your favorite raw fish and produce.
I like to get my sashimi grade tuna and salmon from my local Korean or Japanese supermarket. You can choose from a variety of fish including yellowtail, mackerel, sea urchin (uni), octopus, etc.
Use whatever leafy greens you’d like as your base along with your favorite vegetables. I kept things simple with romaine lettuce, red cabbage, and red chili pepper but some thinly sliced carrots, cucumbers, and radish would be great as well.
A generous drizzle of cho-gochujang sauce will bring everything together, along with toasted sesame oil which adds a nutty dimension. You can make the gochujang sauce yourself or purchase a bottle of the pre-made stuff from your local Asian market. asasa
