Preparation
Cook the rice
In a medium pot, combine the rice, 1 ¼ cups water and a big pinch of salt (double the water and salt for 4 portions); bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 17 to 20 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 min. Fluff the rice.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, mince the garlic. Halve the carrots lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise on an angle. Remove the bottom of the mushrooms; separate the mushrooms. Juice the lime. Roughly chop the kimchi. In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, sesame oil and ½ the garlic.
Make the kimchi carrots
In a medium bowl, combine the carrots, kimchi, ⅓ of the spices, ½ the sesame oil mixture, 2 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Cook the mushrooms & beef
In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the mushrooms and remaining garlic. Sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to brown; season with the remaining spices. Add the beef* and cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until browned and cooked through. Add the soy sauce and remaining sesame oil mixture. Cook, stirring often, 30 sec. to 1 min., until glazed.
Plate your dish
Divide the rice between your bowls. Top with the mushrooms, beef and kimchi carrots. Bon appétit!
