Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and generously spray a 3-quart baking dish with non-stick spray.
  2. Mix together the gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and rice vinegar in a bowl.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, then add the ground pork. Cook until the pork is no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
  4. Sauté the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic in the same skillet until the mushrooms are golden and the onions are soft.
  5. Stir in the chopped kale and shredded carrots, cooking for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. Combine the cooked rice, reserved pork, and gochujang mixture in a large bowl.
  7. Spoon the mixture into your prepared baking dish, creating six little indents. Crack an egg into each indent.
  8. Bake in your preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the eggs are set.
  9. Garnish with sliced green onions and a drizzle of Sriracha sauce before serving.
