Hey lovelies, come a new year, I always find myself craving something fresh and flavorful, but also really simple to make, which is why I'm so excited to be partnering with Impossible Foods to share at these absolutely delicious Korean rice bowls that my family and I just can't get enough of right now. This recipe is a tasty twist on a classic Korean beef dish using Impossible beef made from plants. This versatile plant-based beef cooks, bakes, and grills just like traditional beef and can be swapped into any of your favorite recipes. Plus, it just happens to taste incredible. So, the first step in preparing this delicious dish is mixing up our sauce.
So, to start in my bowl, I have got some tamari, which is just basically gluten-free soy sauce. You could definitely use soy sauce if that's what you have on hand. To that, I'm going to add a few tablespoons of brown sugar. I'm also going to be adding a little bit of tang to this with some rice vinegar. I've got a little bit of nuttiness with some sesame oil. Keep in mind with sesame oil, a little bit goes a long way, so I'm only using about a teaspoon in this recipe. And then, for even more incredible flavor and just a touch of heat, I'm also going to be adding gochujang, which is a traditional Korean red chili paste. You can usually find this in the international aisle at most
supermarkets. If you do have trouble finding it, you could swap in something like sriracha here and still get that same flavor, but the gochujang is definitely the traditional way to go. Finally, I'll go ahead and add some freshly grated ginger to this as well. And then, I'm also going to grate in some garlic. Now, you could also add minced garlic to this instead, but I find grating it is just super easy and saves me the trouble of chopping it. Once all of that tastiness is in my bowl, I'm just going to give it a quick whisk until it's well combined, and then I'll set it aside while I get to work on cooking up my Impossible beef.
In a large skillet, I'm going to go ahead and heat up just a tablespoon or so of oil. And then, as soon as my oil's hot, I'm going to add my Impossible Beef Made with Plants to the pan. And I'm going to cook it just the way I would traditional ground beef, breaking it up with the side of my spoon until it's no longer pink. Now, if you've never cooked with Impossible Beef before, you'll probably be amazed at how much it looks and cooks just like traditional ground beef. And just as soon as everything is really well browned, it's time to add our amazing flavor to the pan. And of course, we're doing that with this incredible sauce. I'm going to pour it right over. And then, I'm going to let this cook
away for maybe 3 or 4 minutes or until it's reduced and become a bit syrupy. That's how you know the magic has happened. Now, at this point, we are ready to assemble our delicious rice bowls. So, in the base of each of my bowls, I am starting with some cooked jasmine rice. You could go ahead and use any kind of rice you want in this recipe. It's totally up to you. Next, to add a little bit of crunch and some color here, I'm going to pile on some sliced cucumber. And then, I'm going to top all of that with my absolutely delicious Korean-inspired beef.
I'll finish this off with some sliced green onion and some sesame seeds, and these bowls are ready to be enjoyed. Oh my gosh, guys, it looks so fresh. It smells amazing. Now, it's time for a taste, the most important part. It's so good. The flavor is absolutely incredible. It's a little bit of heat, a little bit of sweet, and a whole lot of savory. There's so much to love about this. You can enjoy it right away, or you can store it in the refrigerator for 3 or 4 days. It meal preps beautifully, making it perfect for both dinner and then lunch the next day. Guys, I hope you
