# Step-by-Step Guide:

Get your oven going at 375°F (190°C) and coat your loaf pan with some oil.

Put your beef, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, Korean chili paste, minced garlic and ginger, rice vinegar, egg, and breadcrumbs in a big bowl.
03 -
Stir all the stuff until it's totally mixed. Make it into a loaf shape and pop it in your greased pan.
04 -
Let it bake for about 40-45 minutes until it's cooked all the way and turns nice and brown on top.
05 -
During the last 10 minutes of cooking, spread some extra chili paste and honey on top for a tasty sweet-spicy coating.

After taking it out, let your meatloaf sit for 5 minutes before cutting. Sprinkle the green onions and sesame seeds on top before you serve it.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
You can cut back on the Korean chili paste if you don't want it too spicy.
02 -
Adding a bit more honey to the top makes it extra sweet if that's what you like.

This tastes great when you eat it with rice or some veggies on the side.
