Method
Step 1: Cook the yellow rice
Add the rice, water, bouillon powder, oregano, turmeric, and crushed garlic clove to a rice cooker or saucepan. Stir to combine. Cook using your preferred method:
- with the rice cooker or on the stovetop covered until the rice is cooked through and the water is absorbed.
Fluff with a fork before serving.
Step 2: Brown the beef
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the ground beef, salt, Aleppo pepper, and granulated garlic.
As it sears, break it into small crumbles until it is well and cooked through.
Remove from the heat and set aside.
Step 3: Mix the dill sauce
Combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, water, dried dill, and a splash of vinegar, stirring until smooth.
Taste and adjust with more vinegar for extra tang, or a bit more water to thin it out.
Step 4: Assemble the bowls
Prep the toppings: chop the cilantro and have the pickled onions ready.
Divide the yellow rice among bowls or meal prep containers. Top with the seasoned beef, pickled onions, and cilantro. Finish with a generous spoonful of the dill sauce.
