Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 4 cups green cabbage shredded
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 green onions sliced (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add the sliced onion, garlic, and ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the shredded cabbage and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cabbage is wilted.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and black pepper. Pour this mixture over the beef and cabbage, stirring well to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  5. Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
