NIF'S EASY KOREAN BEEF AND RICE

Nif's Easy Korean Beef and Rice image

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!

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 -1 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil (depending on your taste)
1/2-3/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper (can vary epending on how spicy you like it)
4 cups rice (cooked)
1 bunch green onion (diced)
toasted sesame seeds, to taste

Steps:

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.
