    I made this today and it was delicious! I saved a little of the sauce and used it on some stir fry veggies to go with it. This is a keeper! Delicious and easy!

    Since finding your recipe last year for Korean Ground Beef, it’s been husband’s favorite of all the things I make him! I printed it out and you should see how stained and worn the page is, like a beloved old cookbook. 😄 Making it again today! Thank you!
