Method

Slice the scallions

Thinly slice the Scallions and set them aside for garnish. If your Steamed Rice is already cooked, keep it warm so it is ready when the beef is done.

Fry the egg

If you want to serve this with a Fried Egg, set a skillet over medium heat with a small drizzle of oil. Crack in the egg and cook until the white is set and the edges are lightly crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes for a sunny-side egg. Transfer it to a plate and keep it nearby for serving, or cook it while the beef finishes if you prefer it hotter.

Heat the pan

Place a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add a small film of oil. Let the pan heat until the oil looks loose and shimmery, which usually takes about 1 minute.

Cook garlic and ginger

Add the Garlic (minced) and Ginger (grated) to the hot pan. Stir constantly for about 30 seconds, just until fragrant and lightly softened.

Brown the beef

Add the Ground Beef to the pan. Break it up with a spoon or spatula into small crumbles as it cooks, and stir frequently until it is mostly browned and no longer pink in spots, about 4 to 5 minutes.

Add the sauce

Pour in the Dark Soy Sauce, Light Soy Sauce, Shaoxing Wine, and Sesame Oil, then sprinkle in the Brown Sugar. Stir very well so the sugar dissolves and the beef is evenly coated in the sauce.

Reduce until glossy

Keep cooking the beef over medium heat, stirring often, for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce reduces and clings to the meat in a shiny, glossy layer rather than pooling at the bottom of the pan. Remove the pan from the heat.

Assemble and serve

Spoon the warm rice into bowls, top with the bulgogi ground beef, and finish with Sesame Seeds, the sliced scallions, and the fried egg if using. Serve right away while everything is hot.

Finally, a dinner that doesn't take three hours to make! My kids actually ate the whole bowl, so that's a win in my book. Now, if only I could get them to eat their broccoli as fast as this...
