Kimchi mug cake

Kimchi mug cake

I had a craving for a kimchi toastie but I didn't have any bread! I did have some delicious Choi Kimchi vegan kimchi and a microwave :D
The roasted rice and deeper flavours of the yum phrik replace the 'toasted' flavours of the toastie. The corn gives a sweet kick and the kimchi brings it all together.
