Korean Ground Beef and Rice Bowls

I would use less crushed red pepper next time.

I made it without the red pepper initially. I added the pepper flakes on top for the dishes that wanted it.

Added some air fried broccolini to round out the meal. This was a meal prep staple for a good 6 months.

Nothing amazing. Kids did not enjoy it

This recipe was super easy to make, and it came out delicious. I added carrots for some extra flavour and fibre, but it’s not required for this recipe.

It's so good first time flying solo and I have questions or what it is and can I make it again

I'd use less oil and more soy sauce next time. It was great though!

Not my personal favorite, but it isn't bad. Can't beat how super easy it was. Literally when it was done I was like wait, that's it?! So nice

I added a bag of frozen stir fry vegetables.

This was so easy, and so tasty. This might become a go to meal for me. I wish I had made more.

AMAZING

Didn't really enjoy it when it was cold

This is good, but I doubled the sauce. While I found it slightly too sweet, the rest of the family liked it. Served with braised potatoes and spicy cucumber salad.

A bit sweet, will try with half the sugar next time, but tasty

Definitely nothing special

Used pork instead of beef

Way too spicy

Made more the sauce cause we like it saucy but definitely a favorite

Super easy to make and barely takes time. Instead of ground beef, i used ground lamb which made it so much more tender and then i added some roasted broccoli as extra side!

I was expecting more from this dish.

It was delicious but I add a little less sugar to make it not too sweet. Overall a successful fav now

Double sauce ingredients

Very tasy. Made double the sauce, but will reduce sugar by about a third next time around. It was very sweet.

Next time I will double the recipe for the sauce.

Double sauce

Delicious! We added green peppers for a bit more veggie action and used a hint of cayenne pepper instead of crushed chilli flakes. Cucumbers on the side brought some freshness. Our son said he underestimated the dish and can't wait for the next time.

Added onion powder and salt to the meat as well as the red pepper and ginger 1 tsp sesame instead 8/10

Very delicious and flavorful!

This was really good! I added hot sauce and some veggies to mine

Forgot to take a picture over the rice with green onions. This was actually better than I was expecting. The flavors came through so well. It really did have a Korean flavor and was a bit sweet and garlicy. There was enough sauce for it to flavor the rice as well. Perfection.

Added a side of veggies.

Easy and decent, i added some chopped carrots with the meat and added a bit of water to the sauce as well.

Add a bit of water to sauce to stop it drying out whilst simmering.

One of the best meals we’ve ever had at home, in my opinion. Jax just thought it was ok. Too spicy for the littles.

I make this with tofu and it's great!

I would recommend doubling the sauce recipe to have more sauce that can go over the rice.

Tonight I made this and added my own twist by also adding sushi ginger as a garnish. My family was RAVING about how delicious this was! Will have again

I used Ground beef chuck, added in 2lb of frozen broccoli,as well as doubling the ingredients for the sauce. Should've maybe quadrupled them, as I was hoping for more saucey goodness.

Agree with everyone else - double the sauce!

I doubled the sauce and cut the sugar in half. I also added broccoli. Delicious!

Doubling the sauce is good. Broccoli is great with this of course. I love this as a quick weekday dinner.

Made it with Venison and added broccoli

As others have said - double the sauce and add veggies (carrots, onion, and a red pepper did nicely) to punch it up

Tasty!

Nice easy dish to make with teenager and all loved it. Next time not much sugar needed and maybe I would add veg to bulk it out and for nutrition.

I took out the sugar so it can be whole 30

Delicious, easy to make bowls.

First time making this. I added broccoli for an added veggie and my family loved it!

I added steamed broccoli in and mixed it with the seasoned beef before putting it over rice for an added vegetable

I filled it out with Tender Stem Broccoli, green pepper and mushroom.

Used frozen trader joes garlic cubes in place of fresh garlic. Added Kirkland stirfry vegetables and topped with chili crisp.

Less sesame oil next time

Would buff out with more veg

Easy to make. My pops and uncle are retired marines and loved it. They don't cook and im a novice 😅

Fantastic. I used beefless ground, and it was delicious.

Used in steamed buns, added Chinese five spice or hoisin sauce to create two different centers

Had a pound of beef I needed to use, and this was perfect! Really quick and easy, very flavorful. Might add a little Sriracha and lime next time since it's on the sweet side, but I'll definitely make this a go-to for our rice loving household.

it was very nice 🥰

Might make a little extra sauce for the rice.

Was easy to make and turned out really good. I added a bit more soy sauce but I just like soy sauce

It was delicious. We used sliced sirloin instead of ground beef. But used all the same ingredients and added carrots and green bell peppers.

Good

I absolutely loved this 😋

Doubled the sauce, but kept the meat and rice the same. Still got rave reviews.

Needs more sauce next time but the flavor was great!

Skipped on the brown sugar as I prefer more savory than sweet, and it was very tasty. Topped with Sriracha for some added kick. Love this recipe!!

Needs a little bit less suger than what's listed

Very good evening my kids liked it I added shredded carrots and bean sprouts very good

Use low sodium!

I added shred carrots and red cabbage to it. Very good will make it again. I like how versatile it is and my 5 yr old said it was good so that is a win

I added some veggies (red peppers and soybean sprouts) and it was really good !! Felt a little bit like food my mom would made for me as a child. I am proud of myself because I am trying to get my life together and I know that it start with eating good food. So this the 1st recipe I made with this app, I hope in the future I succeed and make many more !!

My whole family loved it. Next time I'm adding sauteed shredded cabbage.

Less sugar

Delicious!

I would use less sugar or even replace it with mapple syrup next time. I also added extra garlic and pepper when cooking the meat and vegetables. I added in an onion and half a zucchini for bulk and nutrition.

Pretty good and easy recipe, I would suggest adding some sriracha to spice it up.

A bit salty probably from using regular soy sauce instead of lite. Didn't use red pepper flakes. Was good and easy though.

Quick and delicious. Definitely add broccoli on the side.

So yummy! I don't add the full amount of brown sugar, so it isn't overly sweet. Also, when adding the sauce/spices to the browned meat, I would recommend throwing in shaved carrots! I never drain the grease so I can use it to pour on my rice. This dish has easily become my partner and I's favorite.

Delicious! I added shredded carrots, chopped peanuts and cilantro.

10 /10 AMAZING. GREAT INSTRUCTIONS

This was absolutely delicious and super quick and easy! I halved the sesame oil and added a tsp of mirin. Served with sushi rice and blanched broccoli and cauliflower. Adding to my dinner meal plan!

Was so yum. My daughter loves Korean. This will be a go to dish.

I made the rice with coconut milk and it was bomb 💣😋

Super straightforward recipie and amazing flavor!

Love it! Gonna try adding some veggies to it next time. Kid approved.

Did not drain the grease making it a bit moist/saucy but is still good. Although if you want to have it more salty and spicy, you need to add some salt instead of soy sauce(so it won't be soupy) and pepper flakes.

Double it

I used ground chicken instead of beef, and added fresh peppers as the meat cooked. This was a hit in our house!!

Added a few slivers of yellow capsicum for color and a bit of crunch. Was a great dish, quick, easy and cheap.

Used half the sugar, tasted great

So easy, so fast and so good! Kids loved it!

It was the tastiest ground beef my husband and I had eaten. I cooked soft jasmine rice with it.

We used half the sugar and added shredded carrots. Very good! Would also be good in a lettuce wrap and with other veggies. Very good flavor and very quick to make! Definitely a repeat meal.

As other people have said, it doesn't need all the sugar, I usually cut in half. Added a tbsp of gochujang instead of red chilli flakes, increased the soy and served with a fried egg and pickled cucumber. Great weekday staple.

This is a go too for me when I am in a rush. So easy

Quick easy and delicious

I used fresh ingredients and added 1 table spoon of fish sauce and 1 tablespoon of chili oil. It had a nice kick to it .

Made this recipe by substituting 1/4 tsp of peanut butter for the sesame oil and added a bit more soy sauce to taste. I also sauteed some broccoli on the side and then combined it with the meal. Came out great!

Not bad and also not amazing, would make again if I have the stuff for it but not going to go out of my way to plan it

Like others have mentioned, I cut the sugar in half, and used ground turkey. I also cut the soy sauce amount because I didn't have low salt or coconut aminos. I added an extra 1/4 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes and a bag of fresh spinach (I didn't feel like making a separate vegetable). It was really good! I'd tried this recipe before (from a random online search for a dinner recipe) and it really was very sweet. Cutting the sugar in half made a big difference.

Used turkey mince, added some a handful of fresh spinach and used half of suggested sugar. Making again!

Need a bit less sugar Added a small bit of salt And will try next time to switch the sugar for honey

I used sirloin steak and marinated it in the mixture before cooking it. The kids loved it

Reduced the sugar per tips from others, and used ginger paste, and chili garlic sauce. Also added egg and carrots.

Lowered the amount brown sugar and it came out great. Might add more sesame oil next time.

Easy simple meal that goes really well with rice, fried egg and sambal. Would repeat. I saw notes recommending less sugar, and that's what I did. I also added spinach and green bean for crunch. Perfect.

Really enjoyed this. Sweet yet spicy. I didn't have the ginger so added all spice instead and brown onions instead of green. I'll be adding both next time as it will taste even better.

Too sweet for my taste

Delicious 😋 I had my doubts towards the end but it was delicious. Put some frozen veg in the rice to health it up a bit. 5 stars. Added paprika instead of chillie flakes as well

Very nice. A bit too sweet for me so less sugar next time.

Love this recipe, one of my favorites for a quick dinner.

Pretty typical.

I forgot to take a picture, but this was really good, and super easy to make! I do feel it could use some veggies, specifically broccoli. But it was delicious either way, the whole family enjoyed it

Made this to go with gochujang sauce, fried eggs, and sautéed mushrooms and spinach over white rice. Nothing standout, but it was pretty tasty and easy to make.

The flavours are amazing! but i think it needs more than just rice and meat. I will definitely be adding some veg and noodles next time

Added Cajun seasoning and 50g of Gochujang hot pepper paste, used tteokbokki instead of rice, and added fried egg. Pretty yummy

Needs chili oil, and possibly some lime or other sharp citrus. Otherwise amazing. But we like it Spicy

I've made it 2 times now, 1st time, I had just moved out of my parents and didn't have any measurement spoons or cups, but it turned out great just eyeballing it, 2nd time... I followed the recipe to a T, and honestly, it wasn't that great, so just use this as a guideline and trust your gut!! It'll turn out great!!!

I did add some peppers so it was a little bit more spicy

I loved it! I added some extra veggies and it was perfect. It's quick and easy to make when you're short on time.

My teens and husband ate this up-wished i doubled it.

Ficou muito gostosa! Ficou agridoce, nem muito doce ou salgada. Ficou bem saborosa e úmida. Com certeza farei de novo

Fast, simple and delicious. Really nice how light this is too.

Doubled the sauce

This is delicious! I did change a few things though. 1. I added an egg 2. I added sweet soy sauce on top of the recommended soy sauce 3. Added a bit more pepper flakes as I enjoy spicy food 4. I used paste rather than ground ginger

I want to do fresh Ginger instead of powdered ginger next time

Didn't have sesame seeds. It was good. But if I make it again, I'd make much more sauce and probably a bigger portion in general. The flavor was nice, It had a pleasant sweetness to it. It paired nicely with the rice from my rice cooker. I would make it again because it was actually super easy to make. Minimal prep time. As long as you have rice in your cooker.

Love it!

It was great but needed more sauce to mix in with the rice!

Both kiddos liked this!

Taking the advice of other people cooking this, we also used more soy sauce and ginger and it definitely made a difference. Also, we chose to take the rice and mix it completely with the meat after it simmered in the sauce, that way it all became richer in flavour. Totally recommend it, it is also extremely easy to make and it is delicious.

Pretty good added a little more crushed red pepper, I prefer a little more spice.

Quick and delicious! I used ground turkey meat since it was all I had on hand, and it turned out perfect! I also added some seaweed Would definitely make it again

7/10. i tad salty, could be my mistake, very quick and easy to make, could try lettuce wraps instead of rice for a healthy alternative next time. easy and quick to make.

Quick and Easy!

double the sauce recipe!

Turned out pretty good. Added steamed broccoli to get more greens in the dish and used jasmine rice as the base.

So tasty! I added some green beans and broccoli and had mine with cauliflower rice. 10/10

Delicious. Decided to opt out of the green onions as I don't really like them, but the dish is very yummy 😋

Added sautéed onions.

Super easy. Yummy. Picky family likes it!

Delicious! It was sweet and spicy! Loved it. Will make it often. Added peas. Next time, green beans!

Add additional veggies

Easy as.

Didn't have any outstanding flavor. Added soy sauce and/or salt to give it some tast.

Really good! I would add chopped carrots next time, double the sauce (not the brown sugar though), top with sriracha mayo, and crispy fried onions

Very tasty!

Easy. Not that much flavour except sweet and soy, might up the ginger and chilli. Ok but too much sugar when need to be healthy 😸

A bit sweet for my tastes but otherwise very happy with this recipe.

A little bland. I added mushrooms, carrots, & zucchini as well.

Added cilantro, broccoli, and shaved carrots, doubled ginger, used honey instead of brown sugar.

Simple to make with few ingredients. Also could make with ground turkey or steak to mix things up

Amazing week day dinner option

It was really really good. We added some broccoli and it added extra yumminess.

It just tasted like ground beef and rice. Not enough Asian flavor

Quite nice, a little bland. Goes really well with a side dish of kimchi.

Subbed turkey Added peppers broccoli and edamame which extended prep time by about 30 min Would do well with pineapple bits too Served over quinoa About 45 min start to end with clean kitchen

Just a little sweet for me. But otherwise great!

Added more soy sauce, rice vinegar

Delicious, I don't enjoy spicy food so I didn't add pepper or red pepper flakes. It was kinda sweet which I liked but if you use all the ingredients it would probably even out

next time, I'd add a few chillies, just to give it a bit more flavour

Too much sugar, def half next time.

Instead of serving the ground beef on top of the rice I mixed it all together. Very easy and quick recipe. Did not add any sugar to the sauce. Loved it 👍🏻

So good! I doubled the sauce and added about a tbl of oyster sauce and about a tsp of corn starch. I’ll try it with diced beef next time. Kids actually ate leftovers and that’s rare.

I used shaved steak, doubled the sauce recipe, and added veggies. Also added gochujang paste and Seaweed.

Doubled the sauce and added frozen veggies - so delicious, quick, and easy!

Doubled the sauce recipe but added a little less brown sugar. This was so good and my toddler loved it. Definitely going in my meal rotation!

So good!! I recommend adding a tablespoon of cornstarch at the end of simmering the sauce on the beef to really get it to stick to the meat.

Not bad at all. Quick and easy recipe only took less than 30 mins to make!

We have made this dish at least once a month since we tried it and just made it for my parents last night and they loved it as well.

Awesome! I may add a bit more garlic next time, but otherwise it's wonderful as is.

We added some stir fried vegetables and nuts, a bit of orange juice and 1 minced and fried jalapeno. It was delicious 😋

Fiancé absolutely loved it

Definitely needs something to compliment the dish. I just had white rice but perhaps some greens would work well with it. All in all though it tasted great!

Tasty, but i did put some stock to it as it really needed some

Topped with sriracha mayo. 10/10.

Sauce was perfect compliment to the ground beef

Great! I followed the notes of those who said to double the sauce except for the sugar. Husband and toddler loved it.

Double sauce, reduce sugar, serve with rice, green beans, and fried egg

Love a recipe that is easy to make, quick and tastes great! Used Beyond Beef and added steamed broccoli, but otherwise kept to the recipe.

I used around turkey and cooked it in beef broth for flavor. This was an absolute hit! The whole family LOVED it!

Simple but tasty. Doubled the sauce recipe as suggested...apart from the sugar. I also had some leftover fried soy cabbage from lunch so chucked that in too. I think the added texture helped. I also toasted the sesame seeds earlier too.

It was great! Went a little crazy with the green onions. I used japanese soy sauce (used both light and dark, didnt use kikkomon). Also added some yellow onions.

Awesome meal!

Good with 25% less sugar

Double the sauce recipe but only use 1/4 cup brown sugar total.

Very tasty. Next time I'll top each bowl with an over easy egg & sriracha! I topped it with a bit of Sriracha this time but it's missing an egg. It's basically bulgogi!

Really tasty and quick to make!!

Use ground lamb instead

Read the reviews and doubled up on the sauce. I kept the brown sugar the same though and it was still too sweet so would try again but omit the sugar next time or maybe half it. Also didn't have any light soy so used dark which was maybe a mistake. Was alright. Felt like it was a bit greasy though.

Did not add the brown sugar and was delicious

Used ground lamb & have tried with ground turkey. All 3 ways are really really good.

Added peppers, onions, matchstick carrots.

for 4 people i did the correct amount of ingredients but had 500g more beef mince and worked so well

Bit of lemon juice?

Definitely double the sauce. I didn't listen and it came out really dry. But the taste and smell is very good. And it very easy

Really easy and incredibly tasty. Couldn't get sesame seeds so skipped those (although I'm sure it would have been a nice touch). Also bumped up the chilli flakes as we like it firey in our house. Think I'd cut down on the sugar a little next time as it was a tad sweet but that didn't stop us devouring it. Would definitely make it again - quick, tasty, and done in minutes - what's not to love about that!

Absolutely delicious! Whole family LOVED it! Also, it's very fast to make! Didn't change a thing! Definitely need to double and have for later!

Double the sauce, otherwise great

Super quick, delicious!

Easy, decent flavor.

Used ground turkey and doubled the sauce because it seemed a little dry with only one batch. Loved the flavor and will definitely make it again. I would love to try it with steak strips.

I made the recipe with a vegetarian meat substitute from Trader Joe’s. I recommend making extra sauce if you go this route. Also added an over easy egg. Absolutely delicious!

Use Trader Joe's veggie Korean beef. Add egg.

Really easy and very tweak-able. We like it with a head of sauteed broccoli 💚

All around a fantastic dish, if you want to add a little more Korean flair, add some gochujang to the sauce, but still amazing as is.

Yum

Me and my boyfriend really enjoyed this! it's definitely going into the list of dinners we cycle through! i didn't garnish with green onions, but besides that i followed the recipe exactly.

Holy heck… I’m so full it hurts. Kid had seconds. Wife has gone back for extra… Why did it take me so damn long to make this? Passed over night after night in lieu of other recipes, and man am I happy I finally made it. I made it exactly to recipe, but drizzled yum yum sauce over the top, found that recipe on Whisk too. Damn I’m so full.

I made this with venison and it turned out great! Next time I will add green beans to help add texture to it.

It was a little dry the first time I made it by the recipe. To make it a little saucier, we improvised by adding about 1 cup water and 1 tsp beef bullion. Then thickened by adding a mixture of 1 Tbsp of corn starch pre-dissolved in 3 Tbsp of water.

Husband and I loved it. Too much garlic, but otherwise delicious!

I doubled everything for the sauce, so the meat had even coverage. Really tasty!

Doubled the sauce as seen on others comments as we'll add added some onions too the ground beef

It was very tasty but I will probably double the sauce next time. I also seasoned the beef with salt and onion powder to add a little flavor.

Brilliant. This one is going in the rotation for the family.

In a large skillet cook the ground beef and garlic breaking it into crumbles over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain the grease. In a small bowl whisk brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, red pepper flakes and pepper. Pour over the ground beef and let simmer for another minute or two. Serve over hot rice and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

Was super quick and tasty. Would add a bit more “kick” to it.

Served with siracha, mayo and cucumber. Was a hit with everyone! Husband made his into a wrap almost like a Korean burrito and loved it.

Really easy meal, but I recommend adding just a bit of lemon juice to taste.

Amazing! We all loved it.

Doubled the sauce recipe and made a third batch to top with in case it was needed. Also added frozen broccoli (steamed separate) and chopped carrots (tossed in with the meat and cooked on simmer until soft).

Added on the side Kimchi and seaweed. So good so easy! Update: This has been my favorite go-to recipe. When I want something simple and easy! Probably my favorite on this entire ap.

I make my own teriyaki sauce with brown sugar, sesame, and lots of sirracha, so good!

Use ground turkey or chicken instead and make into lettuce wrap.

Easy and delicious

Just do a couple shakes of CRP

I substitute coconut aminos for soy sauce and honey instead of brown sugar

Didn't have sesame seeds or sesame oil. Used soy free teriyaki for topping

Too basic and not terribly tasty either, maybe good for kids but lacks vegetables. I also didn’t rate the sauce recipe.

So good with a bit of mayo!

Sriracha

I used rice noodles, it was super yummy. I'll do it again.

Made it with deer burger and it was delicious. Using it portioned out for lunch, and will keep it in the rotation.

Used brown rice. Delicious, high protein meal that is easy to meal prep.

can you make this with chicken?

Easy and tasty. I doubled the sauce.

Suuuuuper good. We used ground turkey instead of beef

Super easy, delicious recipe. I added a lot more red pepper to make it spicier. Would definitely make this again.

Big family favorite. Super easy!

So delicious and easy!!

Yummy 😋 enjoyed it very much

I enjoyed it, so I will make it again! Easy recipe.

Yum!

Sauce isn't very thick, suggest adding cornstarch. I first tried too much and need to find a better ratio. Also you don't need to salt the meat; there's plenty of sodium on the sou sauce. I doubled the sauce ingredients as I tend to cook with a pound and a half of beef.

Loved it. I didnt have the green onions, but it was still amazing. My fiance was really happy with it

Perfect replica

Super easy and really good.

Loved this recipe! My husband has alphagal so we made it with Turkey instead of beef. Amazingly it tasted nearly the same! Closest recipe we’ve had that takes close to beef. Also added some chopped bell pepper, mushrooms, and a sprinkling of cilantro bc I had it on hand and someone here said it was a nice addition. Will definitely be making it again!

Absolutely delicious 😍 added green beans which was really good. Added extra chili flakes for spice

Made exactly as written. So good!

I made two small changes. I added some goguchang paste for more spice and that authentic Korean flavor and added some fresh cucumber slices for some freshness. This was a real winner

Added mushrooms, a little bit of lime juice (about half a lime), and cilantro. Delicious.

Excellent and so easy. Added some extra chilli as we like a bit of spice. Wish I had of taken pic as it was as shown.

Another standard ground beef bulgogi recipe. Pretty good.

Saved my lunch it was super easy to make, added a bit more chili flakes because we like spice!

Simply Delicious. So easy to make with ingredients I already have.

Made a guchjang sauce with stir fry vegetables. SO GOOD

Instead of rice, I used regular chicken noodles, which is such a great replacement! The toppings were kimchi, bean sprout, and a soft boiled egg. 10/10 would make it again!

Crunchy and sweet

Delicious! It’s such a versatile dish for busy families as well- reheat and add some eggs over easy for a sweet breakfast option!

Serve w/smashed cucumbers

Used mix of tamari and soy sauce. Sautéed garlic and onion with beef. Added frozen peas with sauce. Served with cucumber slices quick pickled with rice vinegar and kosher salt.

Made it a little too spicy but still so delicious! :))

Doubled up on the sauce and added a bag of steamed green beans.

If you use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce, you can use less sugar and add some salt

We enjoyed this! I added broccoli to the beef just before adding the sauce for more veggies; next time, I'm going to try either shiitake or wood-ear mushrooms; I might also add some chili garlic paste for an extra kick.

I added a bit more ofthe spices as I usually do when i make this recipe

Needs some veggies

Best meal prep

The flavor of this is great, but a little dry. I double the sauce, and it is the perfect amount to coat the rice a little. It's a great option for using items I usually already have on hand.

Absolutely loved this. Will be a definite go to. Quick and easy. Tastes great.

Didn’t add sesame seeds as I didn’t have them. Made it without spice so the kids would eat it. Also added shredded raw carrot and cooked broccoli after the fact for some more veggie. Quite tasty

It came out perfectly delicious.

Hello?

Served over rice with a side of steamed broccoli. So good!

Family favorite. This is one of those recipes they are fine eating more than once in a week. I add fresh (or sometimes frozen ) bell pepper and onion. I’ve also done the frozen stir fry medley in the past. It was so good. I use ginger paste usually but I ran out so the last couple times I’ve used fresh ginger. My family likes the ginger and garlic strong.

Added steamed vegetables (broccoli and carrots) turned out super good. Since I added veggies I did double the sauce. I will say if you don't use reduced sodium soy sauce double the brown sugar and it won't be super salty!

We did what others suggested: added a fried egg, some carrots and I doubled the pepper flakes, we like it spicy in this house😊 Great recipe, everyone loved it! Going to add cilantro as garnish the next time.

Next time do some water broth and corn starch so it isn't so salty. Overall really good and easy and Baker loved it!

I adapted this for AIP (eliminated brown sugar and red pepper flakes) and it turned out great. I did another version with a chuck roast in the instapot - just added about a cup of water to the sauce - and it was delicious! We have also done this with ground turkey and it’s great. I always double the sauce because it’s better with the rice when it’s saucy. We top with shredded carrot, rice vinegar pickles, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sesame oil. Thank you for an excellent go-to recipe!!

Super easy and quick meal. We add shredded carrots for some veg and color.

Love this. Easy to make and a good go to!

Delicious! Super easy to make and the whole family enjoyed it 👌🏻 for me just the perfect amount of spice but deff add more chilli flakes if you like that extra kick.

Definitely a new addition to our rotation. Hubby doesn't like rice much so I might make extra sauce next time and serve with lo mein noodles. I'll also try adding some shredded carrots and use fresh ginger instead of ground.

Great sweet and spicy

Super easy and yummy

It was really good! I grated a couple carrots and finely chopped some bell pepper and added that in and I think it was a good addition. I also threw in a few extra green beans I had.

Very good. Added white onions to the beef mixture

I used chili powder in same proportion to ginger instead of chili flakes and I added a small yellow onion in with the garlic to cook before adding everything else.

I will definitely need to add this to our regular rotation. Very good and super easy.

Got home at 6:20 and started cooking, done by 6:38. Very quick and simple. Used fresh ginger instead of ginger powder and a little gochujian instead of red pepper powder. Added a little oyster sauce. Works great! Should've made more :))

Added some beans to it.

We love this quick and easy recipe. I use a bit less brown sugar and top with fried egg.

Delicious! I served up a kids portion with no chilli and then added the chilli to the rest. No changed needed at all! Confused by people adding extra liquid, they must have not had beef bowls before?

Quick and easy. Teenager approved.

I read the comments about it being dry, so I added one cup of chicken broth and amped up the spice a bit. Family loved it.

It didn’t fit inside our bowls, but it still tasted great! Served it with a fried egg which complimented it nicely.

Little too spicy for our youngest

A little dry, but easy and yummy. Mixed kids reaction

Double the recipe. No spring onions for the kids.

Used mixed veggies for a keto friendly dinner, tried it with a little bit of yumyum sauce too, very pleased with the flavor profile overall!!

Used gluten free tamari and added both green beans and carrots. This was so tasty, and satisfied a family of five, each with a good side of rice. Will definitely make again!

Forgot to get a picture before I dug in. I added fresh sauted onions and peppers and cherry tomatoes in addition to the things in recipe as garnish. Next time I'll likely add sliced avocado too. Very good starter recipe to add and make your own. Also added a bit more red pepper flakes as I like it spicy. I used a touch of sesame oil to saute my onions and peppers to keep with the flavors in the recipe.

This was very tasty, I feel like I should have added some more pepper flakes to it though as I was expecting more of a kick

This was a very simple dish to make, I topped it with sriracha mayo 👍 absolutely delicious and easy to make.

This was surprisingly delicious. Had more flavor than I anticipated and will be a go to for the freezer ground beef. I did add shredded carrots, onion, sliced peppers, and broccoli. I left the sauce as instructed.

Added green beans and a chopped up pepper to add a few more veggies, and it was great!

This turned out delicious! Very spicy, but I'm sure I overdid on red pepper flakes. The meat is splendid, juicy and goes fine with rice. Will absolutely make again!

Super easy. Thinking next time of increasing the amount of sauce and adding a vegetable like French style green beans.

Reaaaaally good and tasty! Easy and quick to do. Made a bit more sauce with less soysauce as I was using a high sodium one. Still really good and quick to do!

I love it and it's so easy to cook and didn't even take that long to make it either

I used more ground beef than a pound so next time I will probably double the sauce.

Gah, forgot photo. However, I am only learning and expanding my cooking abilities, and this was very easy for me to make. Parents and teenagers, I'd highly recommend cooking and learning this dish. It's inexpensive, Good, and fights the evils of using doordash/ubereats that those of us in our 40's and younger are used to doing. Especially if you bulk cook your rice and just warm it up later, it can be super quick.

The ultimate quick mid week dinner. Super tasty and super easy love it!!

Upped the seasoning a little

Absolutely delicious, have this weekly now

I would 1.5x -2x the flavor ingredients/sauce. Did so and it was great

The sauce was too mild. It needed more...something.

Usually have grated carrot on the side

my favorite go-to dish!!! super easy and quick!

Didn't mind the dish. It's a change of pace from my other rice/beef dishes. My one complaint with the dish was the higher amount of soy sauce. As others have said, I'd pare it down. As far as the website for the instructions, it was pretty annoying. I know they usually fill them with ads but this one kept jumping me all over the page due to ad loads. When I'm making food I don't want to have to keep scrolling and finding where I left off and wiping my phone off due to greasy fingers or touching raw meat.

I would cut back on the soy sauce. Couldn't taste much of anything else.

Used half brown and half white rice.

I used low sodium soy sauce. I served it with crispy garbanzo beans. Very yummy. A good, cheap dish.

Doubled the sauce. A bit salty because we used regular soy sauce since that's what we had in our fridge. Next time we'll know better. And there will definitely be a next time! So delicious!

Quick access to instructions

Love it. I quadrupled the pepper flakes because I like my food spicy 🌶️ and topped it with a fried egg. Next time might add some pickled carrots. So good!

It was very quick and simple. I added broccoli, I just steamed it by adding it on top of the meat and putting a lid on it. No one in the house was really a fan. I suggest using a different meat than ground beef.

Old college recipe, if you’re cool add some light rice seasoning

I have made this a handful of times and NEVER measure the ingredients. I do know I'm using more soy sauce than what the recipe calls for. But it's delicious every time.

A little sweet for us, might try again with reduced brown sugar. Very easy and quick to make. Also used some green onion whites when cooking meat.

Had to leave out the ginger and chili flakes for dietary restrictions for some family. Topped with sriracha sauce. Super simple, delish & easy.

Too sweet, not enough chili, would work better with different/fattier meat, maybe pork belly. The sauce has potential though.

I added asparagus to mine went light on the red pepper flakes cause I have littles and nixed the ginger and unfortunately didn't have green onion but it turned out amazing! Such a great meal!

Added frozen stir fry veggies to it. Might use this beef to put into an onigiri.

This was my family's first time trying a Korean dish, and it did not disappoint! My son found it a little too sweet, but the rest of us loved it. Served with jasmine rice and the Korean Zucchini side dish recipe found on this app. Comforting and delicious 😋

I would add extra fpr sauce next time I cooled fpr kids so didn't add chilli But was a huge hit Will make again , maybe with more veggies

Double the sauce

Good but i'd lessen the sesame oil a little next time

This was super simple to make and the flavor was excellent! A great way to use up ground beef

I doubled the sauce just to make sure it wasn’t dry and it turned out perfect. I think the flavor turned out just right although for me it was a little too sweet and maybe a little less chili flakes. It was good though

Sooo quick, easy, and super delicious!!

Swapped ground beef for turkey

I steamed some broccoli and added sliced mushrooms and doubled the sauce, thickened it up with a little cornstarch slurry. It was bangin.

No changes needed. Even the 20 month old ate it and my picky 70 year old mother

Left out the added sugar, swapped Turkey for beef, brown rice for white, real ginger for the powdered stuff, doubled the garlic, added 1tbsp corn starch to thicken sauce, and served with raw Persian cucumber and carrot. It’s sorta better and healthier.

10/10 for this. It’s easy and tasty. I did do a few things differently. I used brown rice. I didn’t add the chilli as some don’t like it. I added a cabbage stir fry which included the chilli.

Double the sauce

I didn't have sage so I had to use something else. I ended up using rosemary. The spice mix turned out to be *chef's kiss*.

So easy to make and very tasty! While family loved it.

I made it with brown rice and put layered French cut green beans to make it more healthy. My husband really liked it, too.

I added carrots for some more veggies!

Didn't do the crushed peppers as have kids who don't like spicy food. Added vegs to the rice. Was a nice wholesome meal that we all liked.

It tastes delicious, my brothers loved it. 10/10 would recommend

Kids didn't like it but we did

Very easy to make and it made plenty.

Quick with a little kick! Next time I’ll be adding more red pepper and trying it with steak 😀

Double the sauce, add some sweet chili sauce, fry the whites of the green onions with the meat, add a bag of dry coleslaw.

Added spicy mayo with cucumber and carrots soaked in white vinegar and sugar

I found this recipe to be easy and tasty! Added a side salad with korean salad dressing (made from gochujang), kimchi, and some mini wontons. Yummy!

A really easy to make recipe and delicious too!!

Doubled the sauce and added onion, broccoli and carrots.

It is great but i dont think calories are that low...

Yummy! I doubled the sauce (and used 1/2 the amount of brown sugar) for the same amount of beef and added a bag of frozen broccoli. I just steamed the broccoli in the microwave and added it in the pan with the beef and then put the sauce over all of it and heated it through.

Substituted sesame oil for vegetable oil. Still had that authentic Korean taste. Very good and easy.

Very good! I did cut the brown sugar in half based on other reviews! Thumbs up!

Recommend adding broccoli

Added some celery, great taste!

I added broccoli to make a more full meal

It was yummy! I used lean ground turkey and added diced carrots and broccoli florets to bulk it up a little (my hubby eats a lot—darn his fast metabolism!). Will definitely make this agin.

Was a big hit with the family! Added a fried egg on top as another element, which was lovely. Very mild, so spice lovers will need to add more red pepper flake.

Added some cabbage stir fried in garlic. Add salt, pepper, and sesame oil to cooked cabbage.

As others suggested I did not drain the meat before adding the sauce. It was good and I would make it again. I only made 1 cup of rice instead of 2 and we have leftover rice.

super easy and delicious. I just left the red pepper flakes out to make it a little more friendly to my 5 and 2 year old and put some on my individual plate. I honestly recommend making 2 lbs of meat MINIMUM, cause it's so delicious, I couldn't stop eating!!

Will be adding more veggies next time

it's a great uni dinner, only thing is maybe drain the sauce from the beef before serving it and be careful what soy sauce you use because it can really make a difference

Double the sauce

This was sooooo easy and so good! I made this for two and doubled the sauce. It really tasted amazing, will definitely make this again

Even as a busy college student, this delicious meal was easy to make and didn't require much effort, or dishes. A firm kick of spice, with a sweet and savory beef over white rice is a delicious dinner or lunch to enjoy after a long day of studying.

Such an easy in expensive way to meal prep. This is what 4 servings of this recipe looks like. It reheats well and has so much flavor. If you’re going to serve over rice I for sure recommend doubling the sauce.

Super easy recipe! More of a sweet and salty flavor for the beef. Tastes great over jasmine rice.

Didn't make it to picture time, it was eaten up so fast! It was ridiculously easy and so delicious the only thing I did was added onion with the hamburger because I didn't have green onion I also made a double batch of the sauce and mixed it and the rice together and served

With less soya sauce.

Used coconut sugar Stir fried veggies after cooking the beef in the left over juices Delicious

My family absolutely loved this! We added chopped white onion and made some extra sauce and it was awesome!

less sugar for me as was very sweet but very nice

This was a great, simple flavorful meal that everyone loved. Used monk fruit sweetener with a bit of molasses instead of brown sugar, but both would be great! Will definitely add it to my go-to weeknight menu!

I doubled the soy sauce and brown sugar for more flavor. I didn't add red pepper, don't like spicy.

My whole family loves this recipe! You can add veg as you like, and play down the spice for kiddos if needed. Very versatile, shat you have on hand kind of recipe.

So good as the recipe is. Added pepper and onion strips which added additional flavor and color. Did not drain the ground turkey to keep it wet, as some one commented on. Really good.

I subbed the rice for cauliflower rice, replaced brown sugar with honey and used coconut aminos for the soy sauce. So good 👍

Don’t pour out the juice from the ground beef

Quick easy and tasty. Added extra vegetables to bulk it out

Just not what I expected. Also, doesn't make enough for 3 servings, let alone 4.

Added cashews and spinach.

Very good! lf wanting to add other stir fry veggies to it, it would be awesome! If doing that, potentially double the sauce/meat recipe.

Added bok choy and made a galbi seasoning instead of the seasonings with the recipe and it was so much so!

I used white sugar instead of brown and 500g of minced meat. Cooked it around medium high. The juices were well preserved and it didn’t end up being dry

Kind of bland for me personally, but a great base regardless. I just amped up the ginger, pepper, crushed red pepper, and garlic. I also added some salt and white pepper. Add a bit more liquid if it starts to become dry.

Make extra sauce

I would recommend making a little extra sauce to drizzle on top. Next time we'll try with noodles.

Super quick, easy, and delicious!

Only 2 of us, so halved the beef, but recommend keeping the sauce ratios as it’s good with a bit of sauce! Otherwise would have been a bit dry with the rice!

Easy and tasty. ♥️

Yummy! Whole family enjoyed it.

Easy and very good I just didn't use the onions since the store was out of them

Quick and easy. Added some veggies.

This was so good and even better topped with Asian mayo and Sriracha.

Husband loves it, I could live without lol but super quick and easy to make.

I always add a bag of asian style veggies and make extra sauce.

This recipe was quick easy and delicious. I will be making it again and trying it with chicken and steak as well.

It wasn't too flavorful to be honest. But it was alright

We made a bigger batch for batch cooking, so if you're making more meat, it will definitely need more sauce ( I might make more sauce even with this amount of meat). We also cut down the sugar slightly, added some broccoli and topped it with a fried egg. We also subbed in short rice (like in sushi) Was delicious.

Added broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. Didnt have low sodium soy sauce so I added water.

Great dish. Add some wilted spinach on top if you dont have spring onions 😁

Made with ground venison and used cauliflower rice

I sometimes sub rice noodles with a little sesame oil for the rice and include matchstick carrots, broccoli, zucchini or yellow squash

Grab you some living lettuce and make Korean wraps.... So good

Family fav! Next time add brocoli

This is on the regular rotation. I've started trippling the recipe so that we can have it for lunches for a couple of days. Great with brocolli and egg rolls.

Very good. Added diced tomatoes

If you want more liquid, double the sauce! I don't hate it, but don't love it!

Wife loved it, nuff said.

I used impossible beef, and reduced the soy by about a tablespoon. Amazing.

😂👌I forgot I didn't have soy sauce Used fish sauce instead.

I skipped the green onion and sesame seeds because I didn't have any. It was so good! I made it twice. The first time I served with coconut rice and topped with spicy mayo. I also used ground elk instead of beef. The second time I served with rice cooked in chicken broth. Both were so good.

Added choy sum and sambal instead of chilli

Added shredded carrots, edamame, bok choy, rice vinegar, and chili paste to the meat. Put a little less sugar in than suggested. Topped with cucumbers, green onions, avocado, and siracha mayo. Everyone wanted seconds!

DELICIOUS!!

Cut up thinly sliced pork because I didn't have ground beef. Definitely will make again!

Everyone in the family liked it and was super quick to make

Definitely loved it & will be making it again. 😋
