BIBIMBAP WITH GOCHUJANG-MARINATED BEEF

Steps:

• Whisk the soy sauce, gochujang, honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon sesame seeds and half of the garlic together in a medium bowl. Transfer 3 tablespoons of the soy marinade to a small bowl and set aside for serving.
• Add the beef to the remaining marinade and toss to coat. Let sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. (The beef will absorb most of the marinade so there won't be a need to strain at the end.)
• Meanwhile, stir the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil, remaining 1 tablespoon sesame seeds and remaining garlic together in a small bowl until combined. Fill a large pot two-thirds full of salted water and bring to a boil. Add the spinach and cook until just tender, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Drain, let cool, and squeeze the spinach dry. Coarsely chop the spinach and transfer it to a medium bowl. Toss with half of the sesame sauce and season with salt if desired. Set aside until ready to serve.
• Toss the cucumber in a small bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and remaining sesame marinade; season with salt. Set aside.

• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the same skillet over high heat. Add the carrot, season with salt and cook, tossing often, until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Place in a mound on the platter.
