Cuisine: Asian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 8 oz beef, thinly sliced
- 1 cup radishes, sliced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Green onions for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Slice the radishes and thinly slice the beef. Mince the garlic and chop the green onions for garnish. If you haven't already, cook the rice according to package instructions, so it's ready to use.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sesame oil, swirling it around to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Next, add the sliced beef to the skillet. Stir-fry the beef for about 4-5 minutes, or until it is browned and cooked through. Make sure to stir continuously for even cooking.
- Once the beef is cooked, add the sliced radishes to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes until the radishes are tender but still slightly crisp.
- Pour the soy sauce over the beef and radishes, stirring well to combine all the ingredients. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove the skillet from heat. Prepare two bowls and divide the cooked rice evenly between them.
- Top each bowl of rice with the beef and radish mixture, ensuring an even distribution of the ingredients.
- Garnish each bowl with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.
- Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious Radish Beef Rice Bowl!
Tips
- • For the most tender beef, slice it against the grain and ensure your skillet is hot before adding the meat • Use a cast-iron skillet or wok for the best heat distribution and beautiful caramelization • Don't overcook the radishes—they should remain slightly crisp to provide a fresh, peppery contrast to the beef • If you want extra flavor, consider marinating the beef in soy sauce and garlic for 15-30 minutes before cooking • For a spicier version, add a teaspoon of sriracha or gochujang to the soy sauce • Use day-old rice or freshly cooled rice to prevent the grains from becoming mushy • Toast your sesame seeds before sprinkling for an enhanced nutty flavor
