Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound lean ground beef
1 cup finely chopped red onion
⅓ cup roughly chopped cilantro
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon peeled and finely chopped ginger
1 ½ tablespoons fish sauce
½ tablespoon honey
1 green chile pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons canola oil
¼ cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Combine ground beef, onion, cilantro, garlic, ginger, fish sauce, honey, and chile pepper in a food processor and blend until mixed and minced. Transfer to a bowl.
