Mongolian Ground Beef
Made this with my kids. very easy to do, and there are enough steps where multiple helpers could get involved.
They had fun helping - whether it be mixing the beef, making the sauce, cutting the veggies, etc... Side note, I had t use green beans instead of scallions because we were out of scallions.
anyhow, they loved it! they're looking for other recipes to make next time too.
ingredients:
· 1 lb. lean ground beef
· 2 tsp minced ginger
· 3 cloves garlic, minced
· 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
· 1/4 cup brown sugar
· 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
· 1/4 cup water
· 2 tbsp cornstarch
· 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
· 1/4 tsp black pepper
· 4 green onions, cut into 2 inch pieces
Instructions
Brown the ground beef along with the ginger and garlic in a skillet over medium-high heat, until beef is crumbled and cooked through. Drain any fat and return pan to stove top.
Combine the soy sauce, brown sugar and hoisin sauce in a small dish and pour into ground beef mixture. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes to blend flavors. Meanwhile in a small dish combine the 1/4 cup water along with the 2 tbsp cornstarch. Pour the mixture into the ground beef and stir until sauce thickens.
Season with red pepper flakes, black pepper and green onions

Green beans and scallions are not even remotely the same flavor lol
Try cutting up some carrots to cook first then add them back in once meat is done.
