Let's cook
Marinate the beef
Combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and half the garlic. Toss with the sliced beef and leave 20 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
Season each vegetable separately
Blanch the spinach 30 seconds, squeeze dry, and dress with sesame oil, garlic, and salt. Separately stir-fry the carrots, courgette, mushrooms, and sprouts, each for 2 minutes with a pinch of salt.
💡Cooking each vegetable on its own is the entire point of bibimbap. Thrown together they become a single muddy stir-fry.
Cook the beef
Sear the marinated beef in a hot pan for 2 minutes until caramelised at the edges and just cooked through.
Mix the sauce
Stir the gochujang with the rice vinegar, a teaspoon of sesame oil, and a tablespoon of water until pourable.
Fry the eggs
Fry the eggs in hot oil until the whites are crisp and lacy at the edges and the yolks still run.
Build the bowls
Spoon warm rice into four bowls. Arrange each vegetable and the beef in separate wedges on top, place an egg in the centre, and add a spoon of sauce. Stir everything together vigorously at the table.

📝 Tips, swaps, and make-ahead notes
Serve in a hot stone bowl (dolsot) if you have one — the rice against the hot surface forms a crisp golden crust that is the best part of the dish. A heavy cast iron pan, preheated well, gets you most of the way there.
- •Vegetarian: Drop the beef and add extra mushrooms marinated in the same soy mixture.
- •Meal prep: Everything except the egg keeps 4 days; store components separately and assemble to order.
- •Gluten-free: Use tamari and confirm your gochujang is wheat-free.
