Korean Purple Rice and Beans
Korean Purple Rice and Beans, also known as "japgokbap," is a traditional Korean dish that combines various grains, beans, and sometimes nuts for a nutritious and flavorful meal.

This dish is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients, making it a popular choice for a healthy meal in Korean cuisine.
