Method

Prepare the Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Rinse the short-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker or pot and cook according to the rice cooker instructions or boil, then reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes until water is absorbed.

Prepare the Vegetables

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Julienne the carrot and zucchini. In a skillet, lightly sauté the carrots and zucchini separately in a bit of oil over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes each until tender. In the same skillet, blanch the spinach for about 1 minute in boiling water and drain. Sauté the mushrooms in the skillet until soft, about 3 minutes. Lastly, blanch the bean sprouts for 2 minutes.

Prepare the Beef

  1. 3

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine sliced beef with soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, minced garlic, and black pepper. Mix well and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Beef

    In a hot skillet or grill, cook the marinated beef over high heat for about 3-5 minutes until cooked through and slightly caramelized.

Prepare the Egg and Sauce

  1. 5

    Fry the Eggs

    In a separate skillet, fry the eggs sunny-side up to your desired doneness.

  2. 6

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix gochujang with a bit of water to adjust the consistency (if desired).

Assemble the Bowl

  1. 7

    Create the Stone Bowl

    In a preheated stone bowl or a regular bowl, add a scoop of rice as the base. Top with the sautéed vegetables, cooked beef, and the fried egg. Drizzle with gochujang sauce, sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
