When cooking rice with vegetables, it is best to use the correct amount of water to prevent the rice from becoming soggy due to the moisture from the ingredients, and to have the same amount of rice and water.

Finding these ingredients in the US
- Chili PowderLook for 'gochugaru' (Korean chili flakes) at Korean or Asian markets. Crushed red pepper is sharper and hotter — use about half if substituting.
- Sweet PotatoKorean sweet potatoes (white flesh, chestnut-like) are at Asian markets — 'Japanese sweet potato' is the same style. Orange yams are much wetter.
- Sesame OilChoose toasted (dark) sesame oil from the international aisle — light cold-pressed sesame oil won't give the same aroma.
- Whole SesameToasted sesame seeds are in the spice or international aisle; raw ones just need a quick toast in a dry pan.
- Soy SauceAny supermarket soy sauce works here; low-sodium versions swap in 1:1.
