Preparing the rice: Rinse the rice thoroughly and place it together with the water and a pinch of salt in a pot with a lid.
Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and cook as indicated on the package.
Let the rice rest for 5 minutes under the lid. Fluff with a fork before serving.
Preparing the cauliflower: Cut the cauliflower into small florets of 2-3 cm. The stems and smallest leaves can also be included.
Heat a deep saucepan over high heat and add the olive oil. Let the oil heat up well.
Stir-fry the cauliflower for about 5 minutes until they start to color lightly. Season with a pinch of salt.
Making the sauce: Mix all the ingredients for the sauce well together.
Add the sauce to the cauliflower and let it thicken and caramelize. This takes some time, but is crucial for the flavor!
Serving: Spoon the rice into bowls, top with the Korean cauliflower.
Finish with chopped spring onion and some toasted sesame seeds.
Serve immediately.
