Ingredients
  

  • 200 g Fermented Kimchi

  • Chop Kimchi to pieces
  • Heat the pan with 2 tbsp of vegetable oil
  • Stir-fry the chopped Kimchi
  • Add 1 tsp of sugar to kimchi and mix well
  • Transfer the stir-fried Kimchi to the bowl and add steamed rice then mix thoroughly (this is your Kimchi fried rice)
  • With the Kimchi fried rice, make it into a bitesize ball shape and gently press the middle with your finger
  • Add Mozzarella cheese to the middle of the rice ball and gently wrap around
  • Coat the rice ball with flour, egg and breadcrumbs in order
  • Heat oil in a pot or a deep-fryer to around 190 Celsius and fry the ball for 1 minute (Please stir consistently to avoid being burnt)
