- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 1 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions
Mix the Sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients until smooth and sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
Marinate and Cook the Beef
- Combine grated pear, garlic, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Add the sliced beef and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight). Sear the beef in a hot skillet with oil for 3–4 minutes until caramelized. Set aside.
Prep the Veggies
- Soak dried shiitake mushrooms in hot water for 30 minutes. Drain and slice.
Cook the Veggies
- Mushrooms: Sauté with oil, garlic, soy sauce, and a pinch of sugar until tender.Carrots & Zucchini: Cook separately in a little oil until tender.Spinach: Sauté with garlic, sesame oil, and salt until wilted. Squeeze out excess liquid.Bean Sprouts: Blanch or sauté until soft, then toss with garlic, sesame oil, and soy sauce.
Assemble the Bowl
- Fry the eggs to your liking (runny yolk is classic). Divide warm rice between bowls and top with bulgogi beef, sautéed vegetables, and a fried egg. Garnish with sesame seeds and a drizzle of sesame oil. Serve with a generous spoonful of bibimbap sauce on the side or on top.
Notes
- Use a hot pan for the beef – Searing on high heat gives you that delicious caramelized edge and locks in flavor fast.
- Prep veggies ahead – Cook and store each topping separately so you can assemble bowls quickly for easy lunches or dinners all week.
