Ingredients

  • Cauliflower - 300 grams
  • Beef sirloin, thinly sliced - 200 grams
  • Soy sauce - 3 tablespoons
  • Brown sugar or sugar substitute - 1 tablespoon
  • Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic, minced - 2 cloves
  • Ginger, grated - 1 teaspoon
  • Green onion, chopped - 2 stalks
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Cooking oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish - 1 tablespoon

Steps

  1. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper to create the bulgogi marinade.
  2. Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring it is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  3. While the beef is marinating, prepare the cauliflower rice. Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower, and cut it into florets.
  4. Using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they resemble rice grains. Set aside.
  5. In a large skillet over medium heat, add cooking oil. Once hot, add the marinated beef and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
  6. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the cauliflower rice and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until tender.
  7. Add the cooked beef back into the skillet with the cauliflower rice, mixing well to combine. Stir in chopped green onions and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  8. Serve the Bulgogi Cauliflower Rice hot, garnished with sesame seeds and additional green onions if desired.
