- 3 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce (45g)
- 2 Tbsp rice vinegar (30g)
- 1 Tbsp minced ginger or 3 ginger cubes
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup (30g)
- 1 Tbsp garlic powder

Bowls:
- 1 cup cooked sticky rice (170g) I used Innovasian frozen sticky rice
- 3/4 cup matchstick carrots (85g)
- Pickled red cabbage or onions optional
Instructions
- Cook the beef in a skillet over medium heat, breaking into crumbles as you go until no longer pink. Season with a little salt and pepper. Drain if needed.
- Meanwhile, add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, maple syrup, garlic powder, cornstarch (optional) and red pepper flakes to a small bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Pour the sauce over the cooked beef, stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in half of the green onions.
- Divide the rice, Korean beef, carrots and remaining green onions between three bowls. Add some pickled red onions or cabbage if desired. Enjoy now or store and enjoy later!
