Love doesn’t even begin to describe my feelings about this bowl.

It’s the dependable combination of sweet, spicy, crispy and saucy. Here, let me break it down for you:

Fluffy jasmine rice is topped with saucy caramelized beef, a spicy korean slaw, fresh cucumber ribbons and a fried egg. Oh and sriracha because, spice! I do drizzle a little extra from-scratch korean bbq sauce over top, but not a lot because the drippy yolk is a sauce in and of it’s self.

This is such a fun change from the norm. A colorful, satisfying change of pace.

I have a good feeling that you’re going to love this one.

  • olive oil spray

For the Bowls Gather:

  • cooked jasmine rice
