Ingredients

For the Beef

  • 1/2 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 pounds Lean Ground Beef
  • 1 large Onion diced
  • 4 cloves Garlic crushed or minced
  • 3 Tablespoons 90g Thai Red Curry Paste
  • 2 Tablespoons 30g Pickled Ginger
  • 3 Tablespoons 45g Soy Sauce or Coconut Aminos
  • 3 Tablespoons 45g Maple Syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons 30g Rice Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Water

For the Peanut Sauce

  • 1/2 cup 64g Powdered Peanut Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons 30g Soy Sauce or Coconut Aminos
  • 1 Tablespoon 15g Pickled Ginger, minced (unless using a blender)
  • 2 Tablespoons 60gThai Red Curry Paste
  • 1 Tablespoon 16g Toasted Sesame Oil
  • 1/2 cup Water

Instructions

  • Mix the peanut sauce ingredients together in a small bowl or food processor until smooth. Set aside.
  • Heat a large pan over medium-high heat with the olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef. Brown one side for 3-4 minutes until a crust forms before breaking the beef apart and adding the onion and garlic. Mix everything together and continue cooking until the beef is fully cooked, another 5-6 minutes.
  • While the beef cooks, mix the pickled ginger, curry paste, soy sauce, maple syrup, vinegar, and water together. You can use a blender or food processor for a completely smooth sauce.
  • Once the beef is fully cooked, add the beef sauce and cook until the sauce begins to caramelize around the edges, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve the beef over rice with the peanut sauce and garnish with cilantro and scallions, chopped roasted peanuts and wonton strips, lime wedges, and a Thai fried egg, if desired.
