BEEF AND CABBAGE STIR FRY |#Ketocabbagerecipes #Cabbagerecipehealthy #Healthygroundbeefrecipes #Unstuffedcabbagecasserole #Groundbeefandcabbagerecipes #Healthyhamburgerrecipes #Lowcarbgroundbeefrecipes #Healthygroundbeefrecipes #Healthystirfryrecipes #Groundbeefandcabbagerecipes #Lowcarbstirfry #Groundbeefstirfry



Ingredients

  • STIR FRY SAUCE
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp sriracha*
  • 1/2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • STIR FRY
  • 1/2 head green cabbage
  • 2 carrots
  • 3 green onions
  • 1/2 Tbsp neutral cooking oil
  • 1/2 lb. lean ground beef
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 Tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • Pinch of salt and pepper
  • GARNISHES (OPTIONAL)
  • 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 Tbsp sriracha

Instructions

  1. Prepare the stir fry sauce first. In a small bowl stir together the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, sriracha, and brown sugar. Set the sauce aside.
  2. Shred the vegetables so they are ready to go when you need them. Cut one small cabbage in half, remove the core, and then finely shred the leaves of one half the cabbage (4-6 cups once shredded, save the other half for another recipe). Peel two carrots, then use a cheese grater to shred them (1 cup shredded). Slice three green onions. Mince two cloves of garlic. Peel a knob of ginger using either a vegetable peeler or by scraping with the side of a spoon, then grate it using a small-holed cheese grater.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot add the cooking oil, ground beef, garlic, ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the beef until browned (about five minutes).
  4. Add the cabbage and carrots to the skillet and continue to stir and cook until the cabbage is slightly wilted (or fully wilted, if you prefer). Stir in the prepared sauce and the green onions. Top with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a drizzle of sriracha, then serve.

Butter Chicken | #Cookiebarsrecipes #Honeymustardchickensalad #Chickenavocadosalad #Cookingrecipes #Veganrecipes #Dessertrecipes #Seafoodlasagna #Seafoodlasagnarecipe #Shrimplasagnarecipe #Indiancurryrecipes #Butterchickenrecipe #Shepherdspierecipeeasy




Ingredients

    Marinade
    • 1/2 cup plain yoghurt , full fat
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice
    • 1 tsp tumeric powder
    • 2 tsp garam masala (Note 1)
    • 1/2 tsp chilli powder or cayenne pepper powder (Note 2)
    • 1 tsp ground cumin
    • 1 tbsp ginger, freshly grated
    • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
    • 1.5 lb / 750 g chicken thigh fillets, cut into bite size pieces
    Curry
    • 2 tbsp (30 g) ghee or butter, OR 1 tbsp vegetable oil (Note 3)
    • 1 cup tomato passata (aka tomato puree) (Note 4)
    • 1 cup heavy / thickened cream (Note 5)
    • 1 tbsp sugar
    • 1 1/4 tsp salt
    To serve
    • Basmati or other Rice
    • Coriander/cilantro (optional)

    Instructions

    1. Optional blitz: for an extra smooth sauce, combine the Marinade ingredients (except the chicken) in a food processor and blend until smooth. (I do not do this)
    2. Marinade: Combine the Marinade ingredients with the chicken in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or up to 24 hours (minimum 3 hrs).
    3. Cook chicken: Heat the ghee (butter or oil) over high heat in a large fry pan. Take the chicken out of the Marinade but do not wipe or shake off the marinade from the chicken (but don't pour the Marinade left in the bowl into the fry pan).
    4. Place chicken in the fry pan and cook for around 3 minutes, or until the chicken is white all over (it doesn't really brown because of the Marinade).
    5. Sauce: Add the tomato passata, cream, sugar and salt. Turn down to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Do a taste test to see if it needs more salt.
    6. Garnish with coriander/cilantro leaves if using. Serve with basmati rice.
    7. The Butter Chicken is pictured with my very easy No Yeast Flatbread and no-fry papadums (Note 5).
