Notes

  • You may substitute soy sauce with tamari.
  • You may substitute monk fruit erythritol sweetener with any other sweetener of choice.
  • To make this vegetarian friendly, you may use seitan, enoki or king oyster mushrooms in place of the beef. The marinade will work well with them as well!
  • Korean seasoned seaweed flakes is also known as kimjaban. It's basically roasted and salted seaweed flakes that adds an addictive crunch to any rice dishes! You can find it in Asian supermarkets.
