Ingredients

  • 1 pound white or brown mushrooms
  • cup reduced sodium soy sauce If you need this recipe to be gluten-free, make sure you choose gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
  • 3 Tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon grated or minced fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes Add more if you want it spicy, less if you don't want it spicy at all.
  • 1 Tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 small onion thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • Cooked rice, noodles, salad, or lettuce leaves To Serve

Instructions

  • Wipe any dirt off of mushrooms using a damp paper towel. Break into pieces and place into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the mushrooms are coarsely ground.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
  • Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add ground mushrooms and cook until all excess moisture has evaporated, about 8 minutes. Add onions, and cook until soft, about 3-5 minutes. Add garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 30-60 seconds. Add beef and break into pieces. Cook until beef is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add the soy sauce mixture, and cook until the sauce thickens, about 3 minutes. Serve over rice, noodles, salad, or as lettuce wraps.
