How to Make Bibimbap

  1. Marinate the beef: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and apple juice. Add the beef, stir well, and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Cook the rice: Cook rice according to package directions. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
  3. Sauté the zucchini: Heat 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini and sauté until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  4. Sauté the mushrooms: Add another 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil to the skillet. Add the mushrooms and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add to the bowl with the zucchini.
  5. Blanch the bean sprouts: Blanch bean sprouts in boiling water for 1 minute. Drain well and set aside.
  6. Cook the beef: Add the marinated beef to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
  7. Fry the eggs: Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil in the skillet. Fry the eggs to your liking; sunny-side up or over easy is recommended.
  8. Assemble the Bibimbap: In a large bowl (or individual dol sot bowls if desired), place half of the cooked rice in the center. Arrange half of the zucchini, mushrooms, bean sprouts, and shredded carrots around the rice. Top with half of the cooked beef and one fried egg.
  9. Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately with gochujang (Korean chili paste) and rice vinegar on the side. When ready to eat, break the egg yolk and mix everything together thoroughly for a delightful explosion of flavors.
