How to Cut Bell Peppers and Onions for Mongolian Beef
This super easy Mongolian Ground Beef Recipe is just like classic Mongolian Beef, except uses hamburger so it's ready in about 15 minutes!
You know I'm a fan of hamburger recipes! This saucy ground beef is sweet and slightly spicy and perfect over a bed of hot rice.
How To Make Easy Mongolian Ground Beef Recipe:
- Start by browning some hamburger along with garlic and ginger in a skillet.
- Combine some soy sauce, brown sugar and hoisin sauce in a small dish and add to the ground beef and heat through.
- Stir in a mixture of cornstarch and water to thicken the sauce.
- Season with crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper and green onions.
What is Mongolian Sauce Made Of?
Mongolian sauce is a combination of soy sauce, brown sugar and hoisin sauce. It's seasoned with garlic, ginger and a little bit of crushed red pepper flakes as well as black pepper. The more red pepper you add, the spicier the dish will be. The sauce is thickened with a cornstarch and water slurry. Just before serving, toss in some sliced green onions to bring a fresh flavor to the sauce.
What To Serve with Mongolian Beef:
We love to serve this super easy ground beef recipe over hot rice, but it would also taste amazing with some hot asian noodles, such as ramen. You can even bulk up the recipe with added stir fry veggies like sliced carrots, red bell peppers or snap peas.
