Cooking Steps
Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
Peel, trim, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces.
Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small pot (medium pot for 4 servings), combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.
Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
While rice cooks, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Remove and discard any large stems from kale; chop into bite-size pieces.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds.
Stir in kale, half the soy sauce (save the rest for serving), and ¾ cup water (1½ cups water for 4 servings). Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated and kale is wilted and tender, 6-8 minutes.
Stir in 1 TBSP butter and ¼ tsp sesame oil (2 TBSP butter and ½ tsp sesame oil for 4). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off heat; transfer to a bowl. Wash out pan.
While kale cooks, mix mayonnaise, gochujang, and ⅛ tsp sugar (¼ tsp for 4 servings) in a small bowl. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.
Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for kale over medium heat. Once hot, crack eggs* into pan and cover. Fry eggs to preference. Season with salt and pepper.
Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the sesame seeds (all for 4 servings).
Divide rice between bowls; top with kale, roasted carrots, and fried eggs in separate sections. Drizzle gochujang mayo over kale and carrots and sprinkle with crispy fried onions. Garnish everything with scallion greens. Serve with remaining soy sauce on the side. (This dish is meant to be mixed in the bowl before being enjoyed!)

Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The gochujang mayo and crispy fried onions bring bold, satisfying flavor — though some found the dish a touch salty, so go easy on added soy sauce 🌶️.
- Ease of prep: There are several components cooking at once, so expect a bit more hands-on time than a typical one-pan meal; most found it worth the effort.
- Suggestions: Add more gochujang sauce for extra heat, and consider tossing in kimchi or a drizzle of extra sesame oil to deepen the flavor. Some reviewers added chicken or shrimp for a protein boost.
- Leftovers: This dish tastes even better the next day and works well as a lunch — one reviewer enjoyed it as breakfast too.
- Kale: The kale cooks down significantly, so add extra if you want more greens; some swapped it for cabbage with great results.
Reviews from our home cooks
Way too much water in the kale--had to crank the heat and remove the lid to get most of liquid cooked off. The gochujang mayo is lame. Just gochujang packets (at least 1 packet per serving) would have been fantastic. After my experience with another meal from this week, I put the carrots on the rack just below the top and turned off the heat after 15 mins. They were perfectly cooked this time.
Bibimbap is a fave in my house. Alot of steps and a lot of dirty dishes to wash but the meal was amazing.
A bit salty, I couldn't eat it very often, but we both really liked it. It had sweet, salty, crunchy and more so an all around great meal. Hearty and filling. I made two servings for my husband and I the first night with the chicken and then the following night I repeated it, but I didn't use chicken. I just made it with extra vegetables that I had on hand that needed to get used up and that made it five stars really good not that the chicken was bad. Chicken was really good too.
So delicious! More steps than I thought but overall was pretty quick and easy and it was definitely worth the time and effort
Delicious, loved the variety! Wouldve liked the option for a little more protein but it was excellent
I think the recipe was missing some steps. Recommend putting green onion whites in kale and also adding sesame oil to the rice (1 whole packet for 4 servings).
Not sure how many carrots were supposed to be in the bag for 2 people (we got 1 medium carrot) but the carrot we did have was delicious with this meal. We enjoyed this very much.
I took this to the office, but since fried egg doesn't reheat well I made them into a Japanese style omelet.
This is by far the best thing I've ever had through Hello Fresh. With the chicken it was incredible. Loved it.
I didn't know what to expect with this, but my husband wanted it so we tried it out and WOW - it might be my top favorite meal we've had with Hello Fresh. And we have been using them for about 10 months! SO SO GOOD!!!
