Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound lean ground beef (85/15)
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp fine sea salt, or to taste
- 1/4 tsp pepper, or to taste
- 1/2 onion, finely diced
- 1 carrot, julienned or coarsely grated
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 cups cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp chopped green onion, optional for garnish
- 1/4 tsp sesame seeds, optional for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the Ground Beef: Set a large skillet over medium/high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, introduce the ground beef. Cook until it is browned and no longer pink (about 5 minutes), breaking the meat into smaller pieces with a spatula as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper during the browning process.
- Add Vegetables: Add the diced onion and carrots to the skillet. Sauté the mixture until the onion becomes tender, which usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Make sure to stir the contents occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Include Garlic and Seasonings: Stir in the minced garlic to the beef and vegetables, and continue to cook for an additional 30 seconds, taking care to stir continuously to prevent the garlic from burning.
- Combine Remaining Ingredients: Add the thinly sliced cabbage along with the ground ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and granulated sugar. Continue to sauté for another 5-7 minutes, or until the cabbage reaches your desired level of tenderness, stirring occasionally.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Serve the stir-fry in bowls, optionally garnished with chopped green onion and sesame seeds.
