Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 4 eggs

Grains

  • 2 cups short-grain white rice (cooked)

Vegetables

  • 1 cup carrots (julienned)
  • 1 cup spinach (fresh)
  • 1 cup zucchini (sliced)
  • 1 cup bean sprouts

Sauces & Oils

  • 3 tbsp gochujang sauce (adjust for spice level)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Cook the Rice: Prepare the short-grain white rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set it aside, keeping it warm for assembling the bowls later.
  2. Brown the Ground Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the lean ground beef. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully browned. Drain any excess fat to keep the dish lean.
  3. Season the Beef: Stir in the gochujang sauce, low-sodium soy sauce, and sesame oil into the browned beef. Lower the heat to simmer and cook gently for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same or a separate skillet, heat some sesame oil over medium heat. Add the carrots, spinach, zucchini, and bean sprouts. Cook for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender-crisp but still vibrant.
  5. Fry the Eggs: In a clean non-stick skillet, fry the eggs sunny-side up over medium heat. Cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny, approximately 3 minutes.
  6. Assemble the Bibimbap Bowls: To serve, divide the cooked rice among four bowls. Layer the simmered beef mixture over the rice, add the sautéed vegetables alongside, and top each bowl with a freshly fried egg. Drizzle additional gochujang sauce over the top if desired for extra heat and flavor.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of gochujang sauce according to your preferred spice level.
  • Using lean ground beef keeps the dish healthier and less greasy.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute beef with seasoned tofu or mushrooms.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently before serving.
  • Serve with kimchi or pickled vegetables to add extra traditional Korean flavors.
