Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage or coleslaw mix
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated (or 1/2 tsp ground ginger)
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
  • Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the cabbage and carrots. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until vegetables are just tender.
  4. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Stir well to combine and coat all ingredients.
  5. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. Cook for another 2–3 minutes to meld flavors.
  6. Remove from heat and top with green onions and sesame seeds if using. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Use coleslaw mix for quicker prep.
  • For extra crunch, add water chestnuts or chopped bell peppers.
  • This dish is great on its own or served over rice or cauliflower rice.
