Today’s recipe:
Sticky Korean Beef Lettuce Wraps
Ingredients
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/2 tablespoon canola oil
- 1-pound medium or lean ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Beautiful Briny Sea Orange Chili Sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- ½ cups thinly sliced red cabbage
- Half head Boston Lettuce leaves separated, cleaned, dried
- 2 scallions, cleaned and sliced diagonally
Directions
- Heat a large skillet over high. Add the sesame and canola oils. Allow the oils to get hot, then add the beef and press it into an even layer. Let it cook, without stirring, about 5 minutes, or until the edges become dark brown and slightly crispy.
- Add the garlic and ginger and then stir, breaking up the larger pieces of meat, and cook another 2 to 4 minutes, or until it is mostly cooked through. If there is excess fat in the pan (this happens if you use medium ground beef), spoon out and discard some fat, leaving roughly 3 tablespoons of it in the pan.
- Sprinkle the sugars over the meat and add the soy sauce. Stir well and cook about 30 seconds, then add the cabbage. Stir and cook until cabbage softens just a bit, about 3 minutes. Serve in the lettuce cups, garnish with green onions.
