(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Asian

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. cremini mushrooms
  • 6 oz. dinosaur kale
  • 4 scallions
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1/4 oz. ginger
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil, divided
  • 12 oz. ground beef
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 packet Sriracha
  • 8 oz. long life noodles
  • Kosher salt and black pepper

Directions

  1. Bring a large, covered pot of water to a boil over high heat. Remove and discard mushroom stems, then wipe caps clean with a damp paper towel and thinly slice. Rinse kale and slice or tear leaves into bite-size pieces, discarding stems. Rinse scallions, trim and discard roots, and thinly slice. Mince garlic. Trim and discard skin of ginger and mince.

  2. Heat half of sesame oil in a large high-sided pan over medium-high heat. When oil is shimmering, add garlic and ginger and saute, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. Add mushrooms to pan with aromatics over medium-high heat, and cook until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Add kale and scallions and season with salt and pepper. Saute, stirring occasionally, until vegetables have softened, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

  4. Pat beef dry with paper towel. Wipe pan from vegetables clean and add remaining sesame oil over medium-high heat. When oil is shimmering, add beef. Season with salt and cook, breaking up, until beef is browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add hoisin, soy sauce and Sriracha. Cook, stirring, until sauce is bubbling and beef is fully coated, about 1 minute more. Remove pan from heat and set aside.

  5. While beef browns, uncover pot of boiling water and season generously with salt. Stir in noodles and cook until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water for 30 seconds to stop cooking.

  6. Add noodles and sauteed veggies to pan with beef over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until fully combined and warmed through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, taste and add more salt as needed. Divide between serving bowls and enjoy!
