Simple Bibimbap - Healthy, Less Prep!

Step 1

Take out a small pot. Pour-in a small amount of water (~1.5 cups) for boiling the meat. If you have chicken stock powder, add-in 1/3 teaspoon(!) to the water. If you don't have it on had, use salt (1/3 teaspoon!) instead. Then bring the pot up to a boil.

Step 2

Now, carefully untangle the thinly cut beef pieces (200 grams) and cook a few pieces at a time in the boiling water. Place the cooked pieces in a strainer to the side - so they can drip-off excess water.

Step 3

Now, make the marinade for the beef slices. Mix together: Gochujang (1 Tablespoon), Sesame Oil (2 teaspoons!), Soy Sauce (1.5 teaspoons!) and Sesame Seeds (2 teaspoons!).

Step 4

Toss the blanched beef pieces into the marinade - and get each piece well coated. Set aside.

Step 5

Thoroughly wash mungbean sprouts (200g) - rinse it twice to get them clean. Then drain the water and place them onto a strainer to drip off excess water.

Step 6

Next, thoroughly wash spinach (80g) - rinse it twice to get them clean. Then drain the water and place them onto a strainer to drip off excess water.

Step 7

Take out a large plate. Place the washed sprouts to one side of the dish. Then place the washed spinach to the other. Cover the plate with saran wrap - use 2 pieces of wrap to get a good seal.

Step 8

Then place it into the microwave - on high setting - for 3 minutes.

Step 9

Afterwards, carefully take off the plastic wrap and let it briefly cool down.

Step 10

In the meanwhile, take out a large bowl and make vegetable marinade: Sesame Oil (1 teaspoon!), Kosher Salt (1/3 teaspoon!), Minced Garlic (1/2 teaspoon!), Black Pepper (few cracks).

Step 11

Pick the steamed sprouts off the plate and add it into the marinade (avoid getting in any of the residual water left on the plate)!

Step 12

Next, squeeze the water out of the steamed spinach (important!). Then de-clump the pieces and add it into the mixing bowl.

Step 13

Thoroughly toss the two vegetables into the marinade. Set aside for now.

Step 14

Next, dice a stalk of green onions for garnish. Set aside for now.

Step 15

Fry an egg - anyway you like! Sunny side-up, over-easy, fried, etc. Set aside.

Step 16

Place some freshly cooked rice into a bowl.

Step 17

Then add some of the seasoned vegetables. Followed by some of the seasoned beef.

Step 18

Garnish with chopped green onions. Then a few shakes of sesame seeds.

Step 19

Next, add a drizzle of sesame oil around the bowl - don't forget this!

Step 20

Finally, add about 1T of Gochujang Paste (or our Bibimbap Sauce) to the side of the bowl.

Step 21

Then mix the gochujang paste into all of the ingredients - use a chopsticks or the spoon!

Step 22

Bon Appetit ya'll!
