Ingredients
Cauliflower Rice:
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 lb Cauliflower, riced (fresh or frozen)
1/2 tsp Sea salt
1/8 tsp Black pepper
Korean Ground Beef:
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 lb Ground beef
1/2 tsp Sea salt
4 cloves Garlic, minced
1/4 cup Coconut aminos
1/4 cup Beef broth
2 tsp Sesame oil
1/4 tsp Ground ginger
1/4 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
Toppings:
1/4 cup Green onions, sliced
1 tsp Sesame seeds
1 small Cucumber (~8 oz), sliced
Instructions
- Cook the Cauliflower Rice: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add cauliflower rice, season with salt and pepper, and cook 3-5 minutes until tender. Remove from pan and keep warm.
- Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, beef broth, sesame oil, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
- Brown the Beef: Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Add ground beef, season with salt, and cook 8-10 minutes until browned.
- Sauté the Garlic: Push beef to the side. Add garlic to the center of the pan and sauté 1 minute, then mix into the beef.
- Add Sauce: Pour sauce over beef, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 3-4 minutes until most liquid absorbs.
- Assemble Bowls: Divide cauliflower rice into bowls, top with beef, fan cucumber slices, and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a sweeter sauce, add 1-2 tbsp honey or a sugar-free alternative.
- Swap cauliflower rice with white or brown rice if preferred.
- Optional toppings: shredded carrots, sautéed broccoli, radishes, mushrooms, or a fried egg.
- Best served fresh but stores well in the fridge for meal prep.
