Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 Asian pear, grated (any variety of pear can be used)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce, tamari for gluten-free
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon Gochujang
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated or minced
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • kimchi, sliced cucumbers, cilantro and sesame seeds for toppings

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the pear, sesame seeds, soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil, gochujang, garlic, and ginger.
  2. Heat a large skillet with a little oil or cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add in the ground beef, green onions, salt and pepper and crumble the beef with a wooden spoon.
  3. Once the beef is cooked through, pour in the sauce. Lower the heat to medium-low and stir everything together. Simmer for several minutes or until the sauce thickens slightly.
  4. To assemble the bowls, start by adding in some of the rice. Top it with a portion of the bulgogi, sliced cucumbers, and kimchi. Garnish with chopped cilantro and sesame seeds.
