Steps

  1. Chop up half a red onion.
  2. Add the soy sauce, brown sugar, beef broth, garlic, gochujang, sesame oil, and sambal elite to the slow cooker.
  3. Place the chopped red onion into the slow cooker with the other ingredients.
  4. Chunk up the beef into roughly 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch cubes (trim any excess fat).
  5. Place the cubed beef into a Ziploc bag and add 1/4 cup of corn starch. Shake and toss until the beef is coated.
  6. Seal the bag, leaving some air in it for movement, and shake to coat the beef thoroughly.
  7. Add the seasoned beef from the bag into the slow cooker with the sauce.
  8. Cook on low for 6 or 7 hours.
  9. If the sauce is too thin, create a slurry by mixing 2-3 tablespoons of cornstarch with 3-4 tablespoons of cold water. Add this slurry to the sauce and stir until thickened.
  10. Garnish with slivers of green onion (scallions), sesame seeds, and chili flakes if desired.
