Korean Beef Bibimbap Bowl (Print)

A colorful Korean bowl with seasoned beef, fresh vegetables, and a runny egg, all enhanced with spicy gochujang sauce.

# Ingredients:

→ Proteins

01 - 450g lean ground beef
02 - 4 eggs

→ Grains

03 - 2 cups short-grain white rice, cooked

→ Vegetables

04 - 1 cup carrots, julienned
05 - 1 cup fresh spinach
06 - 1 cup zucchini, sliced
07 - 1 cup bean sprouts

→ Sauces & Seasonings

08 - 3 tbsp gochujang sauce
09 - 1 tbsp sesame oil, plus extra for sautéing
10 - 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

# Directions:

01 - Cook the short-grain white rice according to package instructions until tender. Set aside and keep warm.
02 - Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat if necessary.
03 - Add gochujang sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, and sesame oil to the beef. Stir thoroughly and simmer on low heat for 5 minutes to develop flavor.
04 - Heat a separate pan with a small amount of sesame oil over medium heat. Sauté the carrots, spinach, zucchini, and bean sprouts until tender-crisp, approximately 7 minutes. Season lightly with salt if desired.
05 - In a non-stick pan, fry eggs sunny-side up until whites are set but yolks remain runny, about 3 minutes.
06 - Divide the cooked rice among serving bowls. Arrange the seasoned beef and sautéed vegetables in separate sections on top of the rice. Crown each bowl with a fried egg. Serve with additional gochujang sauce on the side for adjusting spice level.

# Notes:

01 - Bibimbap means 'mixed rice' in Korean. Before eating, mix all ingredients together to combine the flavors.
02 - For authentic flavor, serve with kimchi on the side.
