Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 200 grams Broccoli florets
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 stalks Spring onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and dry all vegetables. Dice the zucchini and red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces, and cut the broccoli florets into small chunks.
Finely mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil to the pan.
Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned and fully cooked, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets to the pan and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the diced zucchini and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry all the vegetables together for another 4-5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked ground beef to the pan. Stir everything together and lower the heat slightly.
Drizzle the soy sauce (or tamari), sesame oil, and chili flakes (if using) over the mixture. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes to ensure the flavors are evenly combined.
Remove from heat and taste for seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Serve hot, garnishing with sesame seeds and chopped spring onions if desired.
