2tablespoonscornstarch
2tablespoonssoy sauce
2tablespoonssesame oil
¼cupHoisin sauce
¾cupbeef stock (beef broth or beef bouillon)
½cupgreen onions (scallions or green shallots) - sliced
Instructions
In a large pan or skillet, add some oil brown and separate the ground beef. Drain away excess juice and set aside.
Heat the sesame oil in a pan. Saute the onions when the oil becomes hot. Add in the garlic, ginger and red pepper.
In a bowl, combine the broth and cornstarch and whisk until it forms a smooth mixture.
Pour the broth/cornstarch mixture into the pan with the onions and other ingredients. Add the soy sauce and hoisin sauce.
Stir the mixture and bring it to a boil. Add in the ground beef mixture and stir through.
Serve the dish with your favourite pasta or noodle, with some green onions on top for garnish. I like angel hair noodles, but it works well with pretty much any noodle or pasta.
