Air Fryer Beef Rice Bowl

• 150 g Jasmine rice
• 300 ml Water
• 300 g Minced beef
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 ½ tbsp Gochujang
• 2 tsp Toasted sesame oil
• 1 medium Carrot
• ½ medium Cucumber
• 3 Spring onion
• 2 tsp Roasted sesame seeds

1. Rinse the jasmine rice until the water runs mostly clear, then put it in a saucepan with the water. Bring to the boil, cover, then cook on the lowest heat for 10 minutes. Take off the heat and leave covered for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
2. Heat the air fryer to 200°C (390°F). Spread the minced beef in the air fryer basket in an even layer and cook for 6 minutes, shaking and breaking it up halfway. Cook until browned and no longer pink.
3. In a mixing bowl, stir together the soy sauce, gochujang and toasted sesame oil. Tip in the hot beef and toss well so it turns glossy. If you want it stickier, return the beef to the air fryer for 1 to 2 minutes.
4. While the beef cooks, shred the carrot and cut the cucumber into thin matchsticks. Thinly slice the spring onion. Keep the vegetables crisp and cold until serving.
5. Divide the rice between two bowls and spoon over the gochujang beef. Top with the carrot, cucumber and spring onion, then sprinkle with roasted sesame seeds. Serve straight away.
