Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
8 oz ramen or egg noodles
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
1. Boil noodles according to package directions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
3. Add garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. In a bowl, whisk soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and crushed red pepper.
5. Pour sauce into the skillet. Stir well, then add noodles. Toss to coat evenly.
6. Add green onions and carrots. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes.
7. Serve hot with sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
Use lean ground beef to reduce grease and keep the sauce flavorful.
Don’t overcook the noodles—they should stay slightly firm to absorb sauce better.
For extra texture, toss in sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach.
