Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound (454 g) ground beef
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) soy sauce
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • Chopped green onions, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, then drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring, until fragrant.
  3. Pour the soy sauce into the beef and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring so the sauce evenly coats the meat.
  4. Divide the cooked rice between 4 serving bowls and spoon the beef mixture over the top.
  5. Finish with chopped green onions and optional sesame seeds, then serve hot.

Notes

Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat until heated through.
