One-Pan Korean Beef and Rice Bake

Ingredients

  • 400g rice
  • 200g beef
  • Green onions, sliced
  • 150ml soy sauce
  • 350–400ml water
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic (use ½ tbsp or leave it out to taste)
  • 50ml ginger juice (or 1 tbsp grated ginger, or leave it out)
  • A pinch of gochugaru
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp honey (add to taste)
  • Korean seaweed (gim), to serve

Directions

  • Rinse the rice twice and spread it evenly over the bottom of an oven-safe dish.
  • Place the beef on top, then add the green onions.
  • Mix the soy sauce, water, minced garlic, ginger juice, gochugaru, salt, and honey.
  • Pour the sauce over the rice and beef, making sure there is enough liquid to cook the rice. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • Bake at 200°C / 400°F for 30–40 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed and the rice has cooked and puffed up.
  • Take it out and mix everything together.
  • Serve wrapped in Korean seaweed.
