Ingredients:
- 4 - scallions
- 2 - cucumbers
- 6 - radishes
- 4 tablespoons - white wine vinegar
- 1/4 cups - fresh cilantro
- 8 tablespoons - sour cream
- 2 teaspoons - korean chili flakes
- 8 ounces - red cabbage
- 2 teaspoons - garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons - sesame oil
- 16 ounces - ground beef
- 4 teaspoons - sriracha
- 4 tablespoons - soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons - vegetable oil
- 5 teaspoons - sugar
- - salt and pepper
- 12 - flour tortillas
Directions:
Wash and dry all produce. Trim and thinly slice radishes and cucumber into rounds. Trim and thinly slice scallions. Pick cilantro leaves from stems; discard stems.
In a medium bowl, combine radishes, cucumber, vinegar, 2 teaspoons of sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and add a pinch more sugar if you like a sweeter pickle. Set aside, stirring occasionally, until ready to serve.
In a small bowl, combine sour cream and a pinch of chili flakes (taste and add more from there, if desired; save a little for next steps). Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add scallions and cabbage; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes.
Add beef, garlic powder, and 2 teaspoons of sugar. Cook, breaking up meat into small pieces, until meat is browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in sesame oil, soy sauce, half the sriracha, and a pinch of chili flakes to taste. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and up to ½ tsp more sugar.
While filling cooks, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
