Ingredients
300g spaghetti
300g ground beef
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon cooking oil (for sautéing)
Instructions
1. Boil salted water and cook spaghetti until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.
3. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces.
4. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, and chili flakes. Simmer for 3-4 minutes.
5. Add spaghetti to the pan. Toss until well coated in sauce. Add pasta water if needed.
6. Stir in chopped green onions. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
Notes
You can substitute the beef with ground turkey or plant-based meat for a healthier or vegetarian version.
Adjust spice levels easily by modifying the chili flakes or adding chili paste.
Always reserve some pasta water — it helps loosen the sauce if it thickens too much.
