Ingredients

  • ½ tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp sesame seed oil
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into strips
  • 4 cups shredded cabbage
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • ½ tbsp cornstarch
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  • Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat and add the sesame seed oil and vegetable oil. Once the oils are hot, saute the garlic for 20 seconds and add the ground beef. Cook until the beef is no longer pink.
  • Add the shredded cabbage, half of the sliced green onions, and red bell pepper slices. Cook until the veggies start to wilt, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and salt if needed. Cook for about 3 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with ½ cup water. Pour it over the beef and cook until the sauce has thickened. Serve over freshly cooked white rice and with the remaining sliced green onions on top.

Notes

  1. Wait until the wok is hot before adding the oil, and wait until the oil is hot before adding the meat and garlic.
  2. If you are feeding this to children don’t add the red pepper flakes.
