Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine your ground beef, onion, garlic, ginger, chili flakes, salt and pepper. Mix well.
- In a small bowl, combine your soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and brown sugar. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet up to medium high heat. Add your meat mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring continually for about 6-8 minutes. The beef should mostly be browned and cooked by now.
