Directions

10 mins to prep

10 mins to cook

  1. Step 1

    Slice up the cucumbers and place them in a bowl. Then place the rest of the pickling ingredients in a small pan, bring to a boil, and once the sugar has dissolved, pour the liquid over the sliced cucumbers. Let sit to cool and pickle!

  2. Step 2

    Wash the rice until the water runs clear, then cook it (should use 1 cup of water) until the rice is soft and fluffy. Stir the coconut yoghurt through it while it’s still warm.

  3. Step 3

    Place the rice in a bowl and top with the pickled cucumbers, kimchi, sliced avocado, shaved carrot, and a sprinkle of toasted white sesame seeds.
