Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup water
- ½ Asian pear, grated
- 5 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
- 1 inch piece ginger, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup cooked brown rice, or more to taste
- 1 head romaine lettuce, chopped, or to taste
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced, or to taste (Optional)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, or to taste (Optional)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Mix in sesame oil.
- Combine brown sugar, soy sauce, water, Asian pear, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a food processor. Blend until combined but still slightly chunky. Pour mixture into the skillet with the beef and cook over medium heat until most of the liquid evaporates, 7 to 9 minutes.
- Place 1/4 the cooked brown rice in the bottom of an individual serving bowl. Top with a portion of beef mixture, lettuce, cucumber, red bell pepper, and sesame seeds. Repeat with remaining rice, beef, and toppings.

So easy and delicious!
Pretty good for a quick meal. My family just wants me to tweak it a little
It’s very tasty but a little too sweet for me. I’ll make it again but leave out the brown sugar. Otherwise, the only substitution was chicken for beef and I used low sodium soy sauce.
This is a very good recipe. We use jasmine rice instead of brown but that’s just our taste preference. We increase it to 12 servings as my family of 6 always goes back for a second bowl. The veggies we rotate as we use what’s in our garden at the time. But thank you for a very delicious recipe.
This was very easy to make and very good. We at it over lettuce and peppers and it was very refreshing and bursting with flavour.
Me and my family are sure glad I made this tonight thumbs up all around only change is less pepper flakes 1/2 tspn had all the garnish’s shredded cabbage ,chopped jalapeño, chopped peanuts,cilantro,cucumbers ,green onions will definitely make again and again thank u for submitting this recipe might try ground turkey next time
