Ingredients

• 500 grams ground beef or pork
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated

• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry, set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground meat to the wok, break it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the soy sauce, ensuring the meat is evenly coated, and then sprinkle in the salt and pepper.

Step 6

Push the meat to one side of the wok and add the red bell pepper, carrot, and broccoli florets to the cleared space.

Step 7

Stir-fry the vegetables for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Mix the meat with the vegetables, then pour in the cornstarch slurry, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.

Step 9

Drizzle sesame oil over the top and toss to combine evenly.

Step 10

Finally, add the sliced spring onions and give a brief stir-fry to mix them in.

Step 11

Remove from heat and transfer the stir-fried minced meat and vegetables to a serving dish.
