  6. Pour some sesame oil into a small bowl. Dip clean hands into the oil and lightly coat with sesame oil to prevent sticking. Use hands to form the ground beef and rice mixture into small balls, about 1 to 1¼-inches in diameter. Repeat the process with the soy sauce rice, continuing to dip hands in sesame oil as needed to prevent rice from sticking.
