Korean Ground Beef and Rice Bowls
These Korean ground beef and rice bowls are going to become a family favorite since they are really simple to prepare! This is the ideal dinner on a weeknight.
My guys’ favorite weekday dinner is this one right here. Every week they ask me to come. We’ve been playing lacrosse every week since we’ve been so busy with it. It’s easy to create with few ingredients and minimum work.
Simple, requires few ingredients, and my kids love it. This dinner is now my best friend. Even though the ground beef just needs a few minutes to brown, this dish nevertheless has a wonderful Korean taste. The finest combination is brown sugar, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
By using basic kitchen components, it elevates the flavor to a new level. The greatest thing is that I always have these items on hand since we adore Asian flavors so much. All I need to do is purchase one pound of ground beef every seven days.
This lunch will be loved by you all just as much as it is by us! When served over rice, it tastes even better. To give it a more complete meal, I even like to add some vegetables to my bowl.
Adding sesame seeds and finely chopped green onions to your dish makes it the simplest thing you’ve ever made! This is something you’ll cook repeatedly!
