Spicy Beef and Vegetable Soup (Low-Calorie)
A brothy Korean beef soup built on lean sirloin simmered with daikon, zucchini, bean sprouts and scallion in a gochugaru-spiked beef stock. Garlic and sesame oil round out the heat while the broth stays light, skimmed of fat, and ladled over a small portion of rice on the side.

Instructions
1
Prep
Slice beef sirloin thinly against the grain; cut daikon and zucchini into thin batons; slice scallion; mince garlic; set each aside separately.
2
Sear
Heat a dry medium saucepan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, searing sliced beef until the surface browns but the center remains pink.
3
Simmer
Add garlic and gochugaru, then pour in beef stock and water with daikon; simmer gently over medium heat for 15 minutes until daikon turns translucent and pierces easily.
4
Finish
Add zucchini, bean sprouts, soy sauce, sesame oil, black pepper and scallion; simmer over medium-low heat for 6 minutes until vegetables are tender, then ladle into a deep bowl and serve with cooked white rice alongside.
