I saw this video a while back and have not been able to get it out of my head (Chef Anna Frazer with the masterpiece)!
I made it and loved it – only problem is that my kids aren’t huge on tahini (and I rarely have it on hand). So I have been making this same concept, but slightly more shortcut-y, more pantry-aligned for our house, and more kid-friendly for my fam.
And wow, we are loving it.
I am not kidding when I say this might be my favorite ground beef I’ve ever made. It’s caramelized and sticky and I found myself just eating it straight out of the bowl. The ground beef gets tossed with cornstarch to get it crisped, and then you’re adding teriyaki sauce and fresh-grated garlic. When the garlic hits the pan… lights out. It smells so good!

This sounds weird but I’ve brought this home as leftovers a few times and we’ll reheat it in the OVEN?! It caramelizes even a bit further and the edges of the noodles get a bit crispy and it’s so good.
My whole family will go for seconds.
Hope you love it!

Brown it (leave it undisturbed for a bit to get better color) and then add cornstarch for a quick coating!

It will cling to all those crisped crevices and becomes caramelized, sticky, just so divine.

Just get them nice and tender.

Everybody in together! Quick toss!

OH MAN. The perfect combination of textures!
