Equipment

  • 1 large skillet or wok
  • 1 pot for boiling noodles
  • 1 mixing spoon
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 knife and cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • green onions, chopped for garnish Optional

Instructions
 

  • Begin by boiling a pot of water. Once it reaches a rolling boil, add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 2 minutes until translucent.
  • Add the minced garlic and ground beef to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5-7 minutes or until the beef is browned and fully cooked.
  • Add the broccoli and carrot slices to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but crisp.
  • In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Pour this sauce over the beef and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
  • Add the drained noodles to the skillet and toss gently to combine all ingredients. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the noodles to warm through and absorb the flavors.
  • Serve the dish hot, garnished with chopped green onions if desired.

Notes

Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers or snap peas to the stir-fry for extra flavor and nutrition.
If you prefer a spicier dish, consider adding red pepper flakes or a drizzle of sriracha.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.
