Ingredients
Method
Cooking the Noodles
- Begin by boiling a pot of water. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions (usually around 5-7 minutes). Drain and set aside.
Sautéing the Beef
- In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula while cooking (approximately 5 minutes). Drain excess fat if needed.
Adding Aromatics
- Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
Preparing the Sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, and beef broth. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the beef and garlic.
Combining Ingredients
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing everything together until the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce. Allow it to simmer for about 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serving
- Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy your delicious meal!
Notes
For an even lighter dish, consider substituting ground beef for ground turkey or chicken. To prevent noodles from becoming mushy, cook them al dente and toss them in the sauce gently. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
