Ingredients
Yield: 4 servings
- 1 small onion, diced
- Diamond Crystal kosher salt
- 1 pound ground beef, pork, lamb, bison, turkey, or whatever meat suits your fancy
- 1 tablespoon Madras curry powder
- ¼ teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pound green cabbage, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- ¼ cup minced cilantro
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
Method
Warm a large cast iron skillet over a medium burner. Swirl in the ghee when the pan is hot.
Tip in the onions and a sprinkle of salt. Leave the onions, stirring frequently until they’re soft and translucent.
Plop in the ground beef and break it up with a spatula or wooden spoon.
Leave the ground meat, stirring frequently, until it is no longer pink.
Scatter the curry powder on the beef and onions and season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk well to incorporate the seasoning.
Turn in the cabbage, and cover and cook for 2 to 5 minutes or until the cabbage softens to your desired consistency.
Tip in a spritz of lime juice, and check the seasoning and adjust the seasonings as desired. Top with the minced cilantro and scallions.
Kitchen notes
- Remember: this is just one example of how you can throw together a Garbage Stir-Fry.
- You could easily substitute a reliable seasoning blend for the curry, or a couple of cups of fresh or frozen vegetables for the cabbage.
- Don’t be afraid to improvise.
