There is nothing quite like a warm bowl of soup when you need a little comfort. These beef broth bowls are a favorite in my house because they feel fancy but come together quite quickly for a busy weeknight dinner.

The secret is getting that beef nice and crispy before adding it to the bowl. I love using full fat coconut milk because it makes the broth taste so rich and creamy without needing to spend hours at the stove.

🧺 Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon red curry paste
1 can full fat coconut milk
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
2 green onions, sliced
1 lime, cut into wedges

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium high heat.
2
Add the ground beef to the pot and cook until it is well browned and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the beef and set it aside, but leave the rendered fat in the pot.
3
Add the onion to the pot and cook until soft, then stir in the garlic and curry paste for about one minute until fragrant.
4
Pour in the coconut milk and beef broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for ten minutes to meld the flavors.
5
Stir the soy sauce into the broth and taste it to see if you need a pinch of salt.
6
To serve, divide the cooked rice into bowls, top with a generous portion of the crispy beef, and ladle the hot broth over the top.
7
Garnish each bowl with fresh green onions and a squeeze of lime juice before eating.

💡 Tips

Store any leftover broth and beef in a sealed container in the fridge for up to three days. It is best to keep your rice separate so it does not get soggy. If you want more veggies, feel free to toss in some spinach or snap peas during the last few minutes of simmering.
