Korean rice dishes

Congee ( , derived from Tamil ) is a form of savoury rice porridge of Asian origin, primarily made by boiling rice in a large amount of water until the rice softens. Depending on the rice–water ratio, the thickness of congee varies from a Western oatmeal porridge to a gruel. Since the history of rice cultivation in Asia stretches back to the Baiyue-inhabited lower Yangtze circa 10,000 BC, congee is unlikely to have appeared before that date. Congee is typically served with side dishes, or it can be topped with meat, fish, and pickled vegetables.

Kongbap () is a Korean dish of white or brown rice cooked together with one or more varieties of soybeans. Kongbap may be made from scratch by combining and cooking together dried rice and soybeans—usually black soybeans.

Injo-gogi-bap () is a North Korean dish, made of rice, kimchi, soy bean paste and soy bean oil. It is made by wrapping steamed rice in a light skin made from leftover soybean paste and dressed with a chili sauce. This creates a meat-like texture.

Heotjesatbap (, also spelled heotjesabap), a traditional Korean dish, is a variety of bibimbap, served with soy sauce (ganjang) instead of the gochujang (hot pepper paste) that is more commonly used. Heotjesabap consists of mainly several types of namul (young sprouted vegetables) over white rice. It is also served with grilled fish and some jeon (Korean pancake).

Bokkeum-bap () or fried rice is a Korean dish made by stir-frying bap (cooked rice) with other ingredients in oil. The name of the most prominent ingredient other than cooked rice often appears at the very front of the name of the dish, as in kimchi-bokkeum-bap (kimchi fried rice).
