Beef and Cabbage Delight This quick and flavorful stir fry combines tender beef and fresh vegetables, all tossed in a savory sauce for a satisfying meal that comes together in no time. Ingredients STIR FRY SAUCE 2 Tbsp soy sauce 1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil 1 Tbsp sriracha 1/2 Tbsp brown sugar STIR FRY 1/2 head green cabbage 2 carrots 3 green onions 1/2 Tbsp neutral cooking oil 1/2 lb. lean ground beef 2 cloves garlic 1 Tbsp fresh grated ginger Pinch of salt and pepper GARNISHES (optional) 1 Tbsp sesame seeds 1 Tbsp sriracha Instructions Prepare the stir fry sauce by mixing together the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, sriracha, and brown sugar in a small bowl. Set this mixture aside. Shred the vegetables: Cut half a head of cabbage, remove the core, and finely shred the leaves (aim for 4-6 cups when shredded, saving the other half for later). Peel the carrots and shred them using a cheese grater to get about 1 cup. Slice the green onions, mince the garlic cloves, and grate the peeled ginger using a small-holed cheese grater. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the neutral cooking oil, followed by the ground beef, garlic, ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the beef until it is browned, which should take about five minutes. Add the shredded cabbage and carrots to the skillet, stirring and cooking until the cabbage is slightly wilted (or fully wilted if thats your preference). Stir in the prepared sauce along with the green onions. Serve topped with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a drizzle of sriracha if desired.
