Description
These Mongolian Ground Beef Noodles are a quick and easy twist on the classic dish, replacing sliced steak with ground beef for a hearty, sweet, and savory meal that comes together in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (or to taste)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 8 oz ramen noodles
- Sliced green onions, for serving
- Sesame seeds, for serving
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, cornstarch, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the noodles.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks. Once browned, add the minced garlic and ground ginger. Cook for another minute.
- Add the sauce mixture to the skillet with the beef. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the beef, about 3–5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the ramen noodles according to the package directions. Do not overcook. Drain well.
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the beef and sauce. Toss everything together until well combined.
- Serve hot, topped with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
