Ingredients

  • ½ cup carrot, cut into thin strips
  • ½ cup red onion, cut into thin strips
  • optional, black peppercorns, garlic cloves, cilantro leaves
  • rice vinegar Exact amount can vary depending on your jar size.
  • water

Sriracha Mayo

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp sriracha, add more per your taste

Beef and Broccoli and Sauce

  • 1 head broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
  • avocado oil
  • 2 lbs flank steak or skirt steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • ¼ cup tamari sauce
  • ¼ cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • 1 tbsp ginger, minced
  • 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green onions, cut into quarters

Bowls and Assembly

  • 2-3 cups cooked long-grain white rice
  • fried eggs, optional

Instructions

Pickled Veggies

  • Add sliced daikon, carrot, and onion to a jar. Add optional flavorings, then cover with equal parts vinegar and water. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Sriracha Mayo

  • Mix the sriracha and mayonnaise until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Broccoli and Beef

  • Whisk together the tamari, fish sauce, rice vinegar, water, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and green onions. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little avocado oil. Sauté the broccoli for 3–4 minutes until bright and just tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add a bit more oil to the hot skillet. Sear the beef in batches until browned, focusing on color rather than cooking it through.
  • Return all of the beef and broccoli to the skillet. Pour in the sauce and toss to coat.
  • Cook for 5–6 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is cooked through.

Beef Bowl Assembly

  • Start with a base of rice, then layer on the beef and broccoli, pickled veggies, and your favorite garnishes. Finish with a drizzle of sriracha mayo and enjoy.
