Tasty Korean Beef Bowl (Printer-Friendly)

Ground beef in savory sauce served over rice with soft-boiled eggs and sesame.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Proteins

01 - 1 pound lean ground beef, at room temperature
02 - 2 large eggs

→ Sauce

03 - 3 tablespoons soy sauce
04 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
05 - 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
06 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

→ Garnish

07 - 3 scallions, thinly sliced
08 - 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

→ Base

09 - 2 cups cooked white rice, hot

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Combine soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and minced garlic in a bowl; stir until sugar dissolves.
02 - Gently boil eggs for exactly 6 minutes, then transfer to ice water to stop cooking; peel carefully to retain runny yolk.
03 - Heat a skillet over medium heat; add ground beef and cook, breaking into small pieces, until nicely browned.
04 - Pour prepared sauce over browned beef; simmer briefly until sauce thickens and coats the meat evenly.
05 - Spoon hot rice into bowls; top with sauced beef, halved soft-boiled eggs, scallions, and toasted sesame seeds.

# Helpful Hints:

01 - Using slightly older eggs can facilitate easier peeling for soft-boiled eggs.
02 - Keep meat separate from rice and eggs when storing to maintain texture; reheat gently before serving.
