Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Heat Guide for Step 2 (dbl for 4 ppl): 1/2 tsp mild, 1 tsp medium and 1 1/2 tsp spicy! Peel, then mince or grate ginger. Heat a medium pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then rice, half the ginger and half the garlic puree. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 2-3 min. Add 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl) and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. Remove pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.

While rice cooks, trim green beans, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Cut bok choy into 1-inch pieces. Thinly slice green onions. Stir together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce and 1 tsp chili garlic sauce in a medium bowl. (NOTE: Reference heat guide.) Set aside.

Remove pan from heat, then transfer veggies to a plate and cover to keep warm.

Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then beef. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min. Carefully drain and discard excess fat. Add remaining garlic puree and hoisin-soy mixture. Cook, stirring often, until heated through, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper.

Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the green onions. Divide garlic-ginger rice between bowls. Top with veggies, beef and fried eggs, if using. Sprinkle remaining green onions over top.
