My favourite thing to order at our local Korean restaurant is BBQ beef. I love to make it at home because ground beef is cheap, it’s delicious and only takes 20 minutes to make. This recipe has become a weeknight staple in my house.
The sauce for the beef is made of just a few simple staples. Soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic and ginger. It seriously could not be simpler. I like to serve this over rice with a side of steamed snap peas.
