Instructions

1

Prepare the Rice

Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice in a rice cooker or pot according to package instructions.

2

Cook the Beef

In a pan, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat and add soy sauce, sugar, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Stir and cook for another 2 minutes.

3

Sauté the Vegetables

In a separate pan, sauté spinach, bean sprouts, carrots, and zucchini separately, adding sesame oil and salt to each for flavor. Cook until just tender.

4

Fry the Eggs

In another pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

5

Assemble the Bibimbap

In a bowl, place a serving of rice, top with beef, sautéed vegetables, and a fried egg. Drizzle with gochujang and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

6

Serve

Serve warm and mix everything together before eating.
