Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
  • 3 tablespoons gochujang Korean chili paste
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup cooked rice white or brown
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 carrot julienned
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the gochujang, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and beef broth.
  6. Pour this mixture over the cooked beef and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and let cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  7. While the beef mixture simmers, steam the broccoli florets and julienned carrots until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  8. To serve, place a scoop of cooked rice in a bowl, top with the gochujang beef mixture, and add the steamed vegetables. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
