Instructions
- Prepare your vegetables: begin by chopping your broccoli, carrots, zucchini, bell pepper, and red onion into similar sized pieces. Set aside.
- Fry the beef: add 1 tsp of olive oil to a large frying pan or wok and set to medium/high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until cooked. Using a slotted spoon, remove the ground beef from the pan and transfer to a bowl.
- Fry the vegetables: next, add 1 tsp of sesame oil to the same frying pan you used to fry the ground beef and set to medium heat. Add the vegetables and allow to sauté for 6-8 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.Sammy's tip: add a splash of water to the pan and cover with a lid. This will allow the steam to help cook the vegetables quicker.
- Prepare the garlic ginger soy sauce: add all of the ingredients together in a small bowl, and whisk well.
- Assemble: once the vegetables are cooked, return the ground beef back to the pan and pour over the garlic ginger soy sauce. Simmer on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened and everything is mixed together well.
- Prepare the spicy mayo: mix together the mayonnaise and hot sauce. Add a small splash of water to slightly thin out the sauce, making it easier to drizzle over the assembled bowl.
- Serve: spoon the ground beef and vegetable mixture over your prepared rice, and finish with a drizzle of spicy mayo, sesame seeds and green onions.
