Season minced beef with salt, black pepper, paprika, onion powder, and yaji. Mix well.

Cook until well browned, then flip to cook the other side. Once cooked, top with mozzarella cheese and remove from heat.

Sauté sliced onions in the pan with black pepper until slightly cooked, then remove from heat.
