Step 1

Add ground beef to Instant Pot and turn on saute mode. Brown ground beef on saute setting. Drain hamburger grease if necessary. If using 90% lean ground beef, draining might not be necessary.

Step 2

Add in the sesame oil, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, and black and red pepper.

Step 4

Rinse long-grain white rice and then add the rice, water and salt to a 6 or 7-inch pan, and then set the pan on top of the high trivet.

Do a natural pressure release for 10 minutes, and then let out the remaining pressure.

Step 7

Remove the pan of Instant Pot rice and the trivet. You're ready to serve Instant Pot Korean Ground Beef recipe for dinner.
