1. Cook the Rice

You can prep this while the beef cooks:

• Stovetop Method: Rinse 1 cup of rice until water runs clear. In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water and the rice to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before fluffing.

• Rice Cooker: Just add rinsed rice and water, press start, and let it do its thing.

• Instant Pot: Combine 1 cup rinsed rice with 1 cup water. Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes, then allow a natural release for 10 minutes.

2. Brown the Beef

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

• Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula.

• Cook for 5–7 minutes, or until it’s browned and cooked through.

• Drain excess fat if needed.

3. Add Flavor Boosters

• Toss in garlic and ginger. Stir for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

• Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil.

• Stir in the green onions.

• Let everything simmer together for 2–3 minutes to meld those delicious flavors.

4. Assemble Your Bowl

• Scoop warm rice into serving bowls.

• Pile the seasoned beef on top.

• Add your chosen toppings—maybe some kimchi, cucumber, or a fried egg.

• Garnish with green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
