Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add your choice of ground meat and cook until browned—about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and ginger, followed by shredded carrots and chopped cabbage. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, approximately 3-4 minutes.
  2. Pour in soy sauce and stir well to ensure the flavors meld together, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  3. Warm flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  4. Spoon portions of the filling onto each tortilla and arrange on a serving platter.
  5. Drizzle with gochujang sauce and top with fresh cilantro and sliced green onions.
  6. Serve immediately while warm, with extra gochujang on the side.
