Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 1 pound ground beef

Vegetables

  • 4 cups green cabbage, sliced
  • 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch ginger, minced

Sauces & Oils

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Seasoning

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Serve with

  • Cooked rice

Instructions

  1. Heat oil: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for sautéing the aromatics and meat.
  2. Sauté aromatics: Add the minced garlic and ginger to the hot oil and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned, releasing their flavors into the oil.
  3. Cook beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and fully cooked through.
  4. Add mushrooms: Stir in the sliced shiitake mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they soften and release their moisture.
  5. Add cabbage: Add the sliced green cabbage to the skillet. Stir frequently and cook until the cabbage wilts, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Season stir-fry: Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Stir well to coat all ingredients evenly and develop the rich flavors.
  7. Adjust seasoning: Season with salt and pepper to taste, balancing the savory and salty elements.
  8. Add green onions: Remove the skillet from heat and toss in the chopped green onions to add freshness and a mild onion flavor.
  9. Serve: Serve the beef and cabbage stir-fry hot over cooked rice for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess fat.
  • If shiitake mushrooms are unavailable, substitute with cremini or button mushrooms.
  • Adjust soy sauce quantity for lower sodium preferences.
  • For a spicier version, add sliced chili peppers or a splash of chili garlic sauce during cooking.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed jasmine or basmati rice.
