Korean Ground Beef & Mashed Potato Bowls

1.In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sesame oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.

2.Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

3.Stir in the soy sauce, brown sugar, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened and coats the beef. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

4.In a separate non-stick pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

5.Warm the mashed potatoes if necessary and divide them among four bowls.

6.Top each bowl of mashed potatoes with a generous portion of the Korean ground beef mixture.

7.Add a fried egg to each bowl and garnish with chopped kimchi, sliced green onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

8.Serve immediately, allowing each person to break the egg yolk and mix the ingredients together for a flavorful experience.
