Start by heating a large skillet over medium-high heat. Gather your ingredients, ensuring your ground beef is ready to go.

Add the ground beef to the skillet and break it apart with a spatula. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned.

Lower the heat to medium. Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add soy sauce and brown sugar to the beef mixture. Stir well and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes.

If adding veggies, toss them in now and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until tender.

Serve by placing a scoop of cooked rice in bowls and topping with the beef and vegetable mixture.

Finally, sprinkle chopped scallions and sesame seeds over each bowl and serve.
