meat (beef or chicken)

Tofu is a plant-based protein, while ground pork is often less expensive than beef.

Put 1 cup of rice in a pot with a bit of water and mix it with hands for 10 to 20 seconds.

Add 1.2 or 1.5 cups of water and let it soak for at least half an hour.

Cut the bell pepper into strips, slice the carrot diagonally, and cut the zucchini into strips.

Salt the vegetables lightly and let them sweat for about 10 to 15 minutes.

Grate half of the ginger and 4 cloves of garlic.

Cut the beef into small strips and make a marinade with minced garlic, ginger, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon sugar.

Marinate the beef with 2 teaspoons of sesame oil for 10 to 15 minutes.

Boil the spinach briefly and then cool it on a plate.

Use the same water to boil the bean sprouts for about 30 seconds and then cool them.

Squeeze out the water from the spinach and mix it with half a clove of grated garlic, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon ground sesame seeds, and 1 to 2 teaspoons sesame oil.

Repeat the mixing process for the bean sprouts with similar ingredients.

Sauté the bell pepper in 2 teaspoons of sesame oil with half a clove of garlic for a couple of minutes and add ground sesame seeds.

Repeat the sautéing process for the carrot and zucchini with 2 teaspoons of sesame oil and half a clove of garlic each.

Cook the soaked rice on high heat until boiling, then simmer for 10 minutes and let it steam.
