Korean Beef Sloppy Joes
Description
Start by browning ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, leaving some chunks for texture. Garlic and sesame oil are added to infuse an aromatic base. Then, a complex sauce combining ketchup, hoisin, water, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and a touch of sriracha is stirred in and cooked until the sauce thickens and the mixture achieves a sloppy joe-like consistency.
The beef is spooned onto toasted brioche buns, which provide a soft, buttery complement to the flavorful filling. Finishing the sandwich with sliced green onions adds freshness and a mild crunch. This dish works well for casual meals where a quick and comforting sandwich with Korean-inspired flavors is desired.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef , 85/15 fat content
- 3 cloves garlic , minced
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce low sodium
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon sriracha
- 2 green onions sliced thinly
- 4 brioche rolls
Instructions
- In a large skillet add in the beef, lower the heat to medium and cook well, breaking it apart but leaving some chunks about the size of a raspberry or small grape (don't crush the heck out of it, the larger crumbles will help give the sandwich stability).
- Cook until well browned (5-6 minutes), then add in the garlic, sesame oil, ketchup, hoisin, water, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and sriracha and stir together well until the sauce starts to evaporate and the mixture becomes "sloppy" (about 5-6 minutes).
- Toast the buns then spoon over the mixture and top with green onions.
