Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) ground beef

8 oz (225g) egg noodles (or your preferred type of noodles)

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch fresh ginger, minced

1 small onion, thinly sliced

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 carrot, julienned

4 green onions, chopped

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust for spice level)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Start by cooking the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

    Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

      Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until it is fully browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

        Add Vegetables: Stir in the sliced onion, red bell pepper, and carrot. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

          Create the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes. Pour this sauce over the cooked beef and vegetables, stirring to combine.

            Combine with Noodles: Add the drained egg noodles to the skillet, tossing everything together to ensure the noodles are coated in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

              Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro (if using) on top.

                Serve: Divide the Mongolian Ground Beef Noodles among plates and enjoy while hot!
