Ingredients

• 300 grams Lean minced beef or turkey
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 units Garlic cloves
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Green bell pepper
• 1 medium Carrot
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 units Spring onions
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the onion, garlic, and spring onions. Dice the red and green bell peppers and slice the carrot into thin matchsticks.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the minced meat to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 2 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 5

Incorporate the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and carrot into the skillet. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are cooked but still slightly crisp.

Step 6

Mix in the soy sauce, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to ensure the sauce coats the meat and vegetables evenly.

Step 7

Cook for an additional 3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with chopped spring onions and fresh coriander before serving.

Step 9

Serve the stir-fry warm, ideally over a bed of steamed brown rice or whole grain noodles for a complete meal.
