A mild-flavored Pork Kimchi Bowl
To prepare this dish, simply microwave it at 500W for 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
The pork kimchi is served on a separate inner plate.
The bottom container holds white rice.
Just place the pork kimchi on top of the rice, and it’s ready to serve!
The bright red pork kimchi looks very spicy at first glance, but it’s actually quite mild and easy to eat. It has a gentle spiciness that’s just enough to feel, and the seasoning is more light and refreshing than rich and heavy. The dish is prepared in a way that allows you to fully enjoy the flavors of the pork, kimchi, onions, and other ingredients, making it delicious.
I had a feeling before even trying it that this rice bowl was quite large! On social media, people sometimes say, “7-Eleven’s bento boxes are small in quantity,” but I think this product has a satisfying volume.
