Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Dice the potatoes and set aside.
- Shred or julienne the carrots.
- Mince the garlic cloves.
- Grate the ginger root.
- Shred the cabbage and chop the coriander leaves.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked. This should take about 6-8 minutes.
- Once the beef is browned, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir well and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the diced potatoes and shredded carrots to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the beef mixture.
- Pour in 1.5 cups of beef broth, 2 tbsp of vinegar, 2 tsp of brown sugar, and 2 tbsp of soy sauce. Stir to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- While the Mongolian beef is simmering, prepare the slaw.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and chopped coriander leaves.
- Add 1 tbsp of vinegar to the mixture. Toss well to combine. The slaw should be crisp and lightly tangy.
- Once the Mongolian beef is ready, give it a final stir and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Serve the beef hot, alongside the freshly prepared Asian slaw.
Tips:
- Make sure to finely chop the ginger and garlic to evenly distribute their flavors throughout the dish.
- For a healthier option, you can substitute ground beef with leaner meats like ground turkey or chicken.
- To achieve the perfect texture, cook the beef just until it's browned and not overdone.
- Prepare the slaw in advance and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Adjust the amount of vinegar and sugar in the slaw to suit your taste preference.
- For an added crunch, consider adding some thinly sliced bell peppers or shredded radish to the slaw.
Enjoy your Mongolian Beef with Asian Slaw as a satisfying and balanced meal. The combination of tender beef with the fresh and tangy slaw creates a harmonious blend that is sure to please your taste buds. This dish is perfect for a cozy dinner at home or even as a special treat for guests. Feel free to customize it to your taste, and most importantly, savor every bite!
