Nif's Easy Korean Beef and Rice

"This is an easy go-to staple in our house! Spicy and sweet and takes very little time. I'm good at timing meal completion so I start the rice, make this recipe and then prepare veggies while the beef mixture is simmering. This recipe typically serves 4 adults and is a combination of a couple of other recipes. Enjoy!"

directions

  • Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Brown ground beef with garlic and ginger in the sesame oil. Keep pan medium heat so sesame oil doesn't burn. Once cooked through, spoon out fat from pan.
  • Add brown sugar, soy sauce, salt and pepper flakes to the beef mixture. Simmer for a few of minutes to blend the flavours. This is when I'll set the table and make some quick veggies (Asian cucumber salad, sesame carrots, slaw).
  • Serve beef over rice and top with green onion and toasted sesame seeds.

  1. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe. We loved it. So much flavor, great textures and its delicious. Quick and really easy to make with excellent results. Made for Best of 2019 tag game.
     
  2. What an amazing dish, the flavors and spices compliment each other so nicely without over the top heat. Add to this it was so easy, what's not to like. 5 stars all the way
     
  3. I had all of the ingredients on hand for this quick fix dinner. I'm glad I did because it was super tasty! I loved the soy/brown sugar mixture. It's not something I'll do often because of the amount of sugar, but it sure was a treat for us tonight. Loved it over the rice. Simple, quick, and flavorful. Thank you!
     
  4. We enjoyed this for dinner last night. I should have used less sugar because I feel it is too sweet. Served this with Instant Kim Chee.
     
  5. Absolutely delicious and soooo easy to make. Made just as directed with one exception-- I used less brown sugar (just our tastes) and it was still plenty sweet enough. Served with an Asian coleslaw on the side.

I love great food and I particularly like trying cuisines new to me! Although I don't prepare as much food as I used to, creating in my kitchen is still one of my favourite things to do. Enjoy!
