- 1 lb (450g) ground beef
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon artificial sweetener
- 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger or 1/4 teaspoon dried ginger
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 3 sliced green onions (scallions, spring onions)
- 14 oz (400g) coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (or to taste)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Brown the ground beef in a skillet and add salt and pepper.
- Take the beef out of the pan and drain off the fat if you want.
- Now heat up the sesame oil and add the garlic onions and coleslaw mix or cabbage until the cabbage is tender.
- Stir in the soy sauce, hot sauce, sweetener, ginger, and vinegar.
- Add the beef back in and mix well.
- Serve with hot sauce on the table for those who like it spicy to spice theirs up a little more.
Notes
- I often make double then splash some soy sauce and hot sauce over a portion the following day, to add moisture, and zap it for 90 seconds in the microwave. It tastes just as good as the day before.
- You can add other ingredients if you want such as sliced mushrooms or chopped bell pepper.
