Instructions

Mix the Sauce

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients until smooth and sugar is dissolved. Set aside.

Marinate and Cook the Beef

  1. 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

  1. Soak dried shiitake mushrooms in hot water for 30 minutes. Drain and slice.

Cook the Veggies

  1. 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

  1. 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.
