To make this dish, warm rice is spooned into a large bowl and topped with cooked vegetables along with chili paste. A fried egg and cooked beef is added and then it is tossed. It can be served hot, warm, or at room temperature. It would make a great vegetarian dish when omitting the meat. This makes 4 servings.
