Description

Ground beef meets tender cabbage in this simple stir-fry that’s bold, garlicky, and spiced just right. It’s gluten-free, low-carb, and perfect for when you need dinner on the table fast—with zero compromise on taste.


Ingredients

• 3 cups chopped cabbage
• 250g (8 oz) ground beef
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp tamari sauce (or soy sauce)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1½ tsp chili flakes (adjust to taste)
• 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced


Instructions

Brown the Beef: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks (5–6 min).

Add Flavor: Stir in garlic, ginger, and chili flakes. Cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

Add Cabbage: Toss in cabbage with remaining oil. Stir-fry for 6–8 minutes until tender but still crisp.

Finish: Add tamari sauce, stir well, and cook 1–2 more minutes.

Serve: Hot from the pan, on its own or over rice/cauliflower rice.
