Ingredients

  • 500 grams thinly sliced beef (such as ribeye or sirloin)
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 100 ml coconut aminos
  • 150 ml bone broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated
  • 2 tablespoons ghee
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons spring onions, chopped
  • 500 grams cauliflower, riced

Directions

Step 1

Heat the ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 3

Pour in the coconut aminos, bone broth, and sesame oil, stirring to combine.

Step 4

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then add the thinly sliced beef. Stir to coat the beef in the sauce.

Step 5

Continue to cook the beef, stirring occasionally, until it is cooked through and tender, about 7-10 minutes.

Step 6

While the beef is cooking, heat a separate pan over medium-high heat and add the cauliflower rice. Cook the cauli-rice for 5-7 minutes, or until softened.

Step 7

Once the beef is ready, remove from heat. Serve the beef mixture over the hot cauliflower rice.

Step 8

Garnish each bowl with toasted sesame seeds and chopped spring onions before serving.
