Do you ever work long days, and then you look at the time and dread making dinner? That’s me this week, I start work when it’s dark outside and end work when it’s dark outside. I don’t necessarily want to be making dinner that will take FOREVER and so it’s nice to have these sorts of recipes on hand.

Ingredients

1 tbsp vegetable oil

1 lb (454 g) extra lean ground beef

2 gloves garlic, grated

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 onion, thinly sliced

1 cup (packed) thai basil leaves, roughly chopped

Sauce

2 tsp soy sauce

1 tsp dark soy sauce

1 tsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp fish sauce

Directions

Heat a medium sized pan with vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add your ground beef, garlic onion, and red pepper and cook until the beef is browned, and the onion is translucent, roughly 10 minutes.

Add the sauce components and stir fry until well coated and thickened, about 3 minutes. Add the Thai basil and continue to stir until the basil has wilted, around 1 minute.

Serve with rice, fried egg and garnish with green onion and sesame. Enjoy!
