Instructions
- Step 1: Cook 1 cup uncooked short-grain rice with 1.5 cups water in a rice cooker or pot until tender, about 15 minutes. Let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside warm.
- Step 2: Slice 12 ounces flank steak against the grain into thin strips. Season with 1 teaspoon soy sauce and 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, then set aside.
- Step 3: Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned flank steak and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned, then remove and set aside.
- Step 4: In the same skillet, add 1 teaspoon sesame oil, then add spinach, bean sprouts, julienned carrot, sliced mushrooms, zucchini, and bell pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- Step 5: Whisk 3 tablespoons gochujang, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl until smooth.
- Step 6: Divide warm rice between four bowls. Arrange sautéed vegetables and flank steak over rice. Fry 4 large eggs sunny-side up in a small skillet with 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil until whites are set and yolks runny, about 2-3 minutes per egg.
- Step 7: Top each bowl with a fried egg, drizzle with gochujang sauce, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sesame seeds.
