Ingredients

• 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 shallots , thinly sliced
• 7 cloves garlic , sliced
• 1 Tbsp fresh ginger , minced
• 1/2 red bell pepper , thinly sliced
• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 2 teaspoon brown sugar
• 2 tablespoon fish sauce*
• 6 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 3 teaspoons oyster sauce*
• 2 Tbsp Asian garlic chili paste , more or less to taste, for heat*

Instructions

1. In a wok or large skillet over medium high heat add the oil, shallots, garlic, ginger and bell peppers and fry for 3 minutes.
2. Push the veggies off to the side. Turn the heat to high and add the ground beef, breaking it up into small bits with a spoon. (I like to spoon the cooked ground beef into my food processor and pulse it barely a few times to break it into really small pieces).
3. In a small bowl stir together the brown sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch beef broth and water and add to the pan. Cook for 2 minutes.
4. Add the basil, and stir-fry until wilted.
5. Serve over hot cooked rice.
