Instructions
For Korean Beef
- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
- Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ginger and garlic and cook until golden brown and fragrant.
- Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess grease.
- Add sauce and green onions and cook until the sauce has reduced a little and is clinging to the beef.
To Assemble:
- To each bowl add 1/2 cup rice, 2/3 cup beef, 1/4 cup shredded carrots, 1 sliced persian cucumber, green onions, and sesame seeds.
- Top with spicy mayo and serve.
Notes
- Homemade Spicy Mayo Recipe:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tablespoons Sriracha
- 1 dash sesame oil
- Add Sriracha or Gochujang paste to the beef sauce for extra spice.
- If you don't have fresh ginger, you can replace it with 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger.
- You can use thinly sliced sirloin steak instead of ground beef. Just marinate the beef in the sauce overnight before cooking to ensure tenderness.
