Minced beef stir-fry with sweetheart cabbage and peppers – an easy wok dish with minced beef.
This minced beef stir-fry is quick to make, packed with flavour and crisp vegetables – and it’s on the table in just 20 minutes. It’s easy everyday cooking at its very best.
The minced beef is browned well in a hot pan so it develops plenty of flavour and lightly caramelised edges. Then garlic and fresh ginger go in, along with shredded sweetheart cabbage (pointed cabbage), spring onions and peppers. Everything is stir-fried only briefly, so the vegetables keep their colour, bite and juiciness.
Then the stir-fry sauce is stirred in, and it’s ready to serve.
Serve with steaming rice, noodles or simply as it is – perhaps with a little extra veg if you have something in the fridge that needs using up. This is a dish that’s easy to adapt, quick to make and always a hit at the dinner table.

Mega lækker. Jeg erstattede spidskål med pak choi
Hej Karin
Hvor er det dejligt at høre, tusind tak 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Mange tak. Endnu et spørgsmål 🙂
Er det sød basilikum eller holy basil? 🙂
Hvis du kan få fat i hellig basilikum, så vil jeg klar anbefale det – og ellers virker almindelig basilikum også super fint. Det bruger jeg oftest selv, da det er det der er nemmest at anskaffe 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Hvilke nudler bruger du i denne opskrift? 🙂

Kan man udelade Ponzu eller erstatte det med andet?
Hej Camilla
Det kan sagtens undlades – brug lidt ekstra soya og smag til med ekstra lime og/eller citron:)
