1
Whisk the beef broth, cornstarch, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, hot sauce, sesame oil, and ground ginger in a bowl until smooth.
2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add the ground beef and onion, season with a little salt and pepper, and cook 6 to 8 minutes, breaking up the meat, until browned with no pink left. Drain off any extra fat.
3
Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds, until fragrant.
4
Stir the sauce again and pour it over the beef. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes, stirring, until it thickens and coats the meat.
5
Spoon the rice into bowls and top with the beef. Add the cucumbers and carrots on the side, then finish with green onions, sesame seeds, and a pinch of red pepper flakes if you like some heat.
