Korean beef

This is a "cheater" version but very tasty.   The sauce tastes like it is from PF Changs Mongolian beef. But cooking with flank steak never works out for me. So when I saw this recipe using ground beef I thought I would give it a try. We served it with quinoa (we use it instead of rice) and broccoli. It didn't look pretty but it tasted yummy.

Ingredients

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1/4 cup brown sugar (add more if you like it sweeter)
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced (see note)
• 1/2 - 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper (depending on how spicy you like it)
• salt and pepper
• 1 bunch green onions, sliced
• 
  

Instructions

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the ground beef in the sesame oil. Add the garlic towards the end of browning and cook for a couple of minutes. Drain the fat.
2. Add the brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, salt and pepper and red pepper. Simmer for a few minutes to blend the flavors. Serve over steamed rice and top with green onions.
