Notes

  1. To save time, you can use leftover cooked rice for this recipe.
  2. You can substitute ground beef with ground chicken, turkey, or pork, or use diced tofu for a vegetarian option.
  3. If you prefer your vegetables to be crispier, you can reduce the cooking time or stir-fry them instead of boiling.
  4. For a spicier version, you can add some chili flakes or hot sauce to the dish.
  5. This recipe is also great for meal prep as it can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or frozen for later use.
  6. You can serve this dish with additional soy sauce, sriracha, or hoisin sauce on the side, or garnish it with chopped green onions or cilantro for added flavor and color.
  7. Be careful not to overcook the eggs, or they will become dry and rubbery.
  8. Adjust the amount of salt and pepper according to your taste, and feel free to add more vegetables or protein to the dish for a heartier meal.
