Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 8 ounces spaghetti

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon pureed ginger

  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

  • 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce

  • 3/4 cup beef broth

  • 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar

  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons cold water

  • 1 green onion, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.. Drain and run under cold water to stop cooking. Set aside.

  2. Meanwhile, crumble ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more. Drain any excess grease.

  3. Return beef to skillet. Add ginger, brown sugar, soy sauce, hoisin, broth, vinegar, and pepper flakes.

  4. Add cornstarch and cold water to a small jar with a lid. Cover and shake until combined and mixture is a thick slurry. Pour over beef mixture.

  5. Cook over medium-high heat until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in reserved spaghetti and cook 2 minutes more. Turn heat off and let sit for 1 minute.

  6. Sprinkle each serving with green onion and sesame seeds.
