Ingredients
  

  • 450 g ground beef
  • 5 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • a pinch red pepper flakes optional
  • 280 g linguine
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 4 green onions sliced for garnish

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Skillet
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Small mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Boil a large pot of salted water, add the linguine, and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and toss with olive oil.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spatula, and drain excess fat.
  3. Stir in sliced garlic and sauté for about a minute. Add soy sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, ginger, black pepper, and red pepper flakes for the sauce.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk cornstarch and water until smooth, then add to the skillet and stir continuously until the sauce thickens.
  5. Toss the cooked linguine in the skillet with the beef and sauce until evenly coated. Simmer for a couple more minutes.
  6. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.

Notes

Use freshly grated ginger instead of ground ginger for a brighter flavor. You can double the sauce recipe if you love your dishes saucy. For a smoky twist, consider adding a dash of smoked paprika. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water. For a healthier version, swap linguine with zucchini noodles or use lean beef.
