Step 1
In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the 0.5 lb ground pork, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
Step 2
Add the 2 tbsp soy sauce and 0.5 cup diced red bell pepper to the pork. Cook, stirring, until the pepper softens, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in the 2 cups cooked sticky rice and 0.5 cup cooked mung beans. Cook, stirring, until everything is hot and well combined, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Slice the 2 green onions thinly. Remove the rice mixture from heat and stir in most of the green onions, reserving a few for topping.
Step 5
Serve the rice in bowls, topped with the remaining green onions. Add extra soy sauce or chili flakes if you like.
