Healthy Mince Recipes
However, if you have evermade a Chinese stir fry – or in fact, any Chinese recipe – you will likely instantly recognise all the ingredients in the sauce. No Western ingredients. This is made with 100% authentic Asian ingredients. And when you take the first bite, it will be so familiar to you.
Serve this over rice or, for a healthy low carb option, Cauliflower Rice (77% fewer calories and 87% less carbs than rice).
I love this recipe because it’s made with beef mince (ground beef) i.e. no meat slicing. Asian recipes made with beef mince aren’t that common, but there are a handful of terrific ones and they are worth knowing for the convenience of being able to make a quick meal when you’ve got a packet of mince on hand. Here’s a handful of my favourites:
Easy Ground Beef Stir Fry
Unlike most stir fries, this one doesn’t come with a ton of sauce. But it’sjuicy and the beef has a ton of flavour in it so when it’s all mixed up with the rice, you certainly won’t feel like you’re missing sauce. Promise!
“This would have to be the tastiest easiest mince dish I have ever cooked in 15 minutes.” – Wendy, 10 May 2017
Recipe VIDEO above. A fabulous quick stir fry made using beef mince (ground beef) <<-- No slicing meat! It's not saucy like usual stir fries, you don't need sauce because the beef mixes through the rice, and it has plenty of flavour and it's JUICY. Great recipe to add diced or julienned veggies!

1. Chinese cooking wine(read more here)- sub with Mirin, dry sherry or cooking sake. If you can't consume alcohol, add 1/4 cup of chicken stock/broth - the sauce willtake around3 minutes to evaporate, but the end resultwill be similar!
2. Soy Sauce - This recipe calls for DARK soy sauce, has more flavour than light and all purpose soy sauce, and makes the food a deeper brown colour. Can sub with all purpose soy or sauce, but beef colour won't be as dark brown.

Savoury Mince Recipe
Want dinner on the table fast? I hear ya! I may love cooking, but even I am always on the lookout for a quick weeknight meal filled with flavour – just like this Crispy Asian Chilli Beef Mince.
These Asian beef bowls are a favourite for their simplicity just like this honey pepper pork stir fry and this Chinese prawn fried rice.
If you’re a regular to this blog, you may have noticed I like a lot of Asian flavours. Just like this one, I love that so many Asian dishes are the work of minutes but are absolutely loaded with flavour.
Mexican Style Beef Mince
These crispy beef bowls are a regular in our house now and it’s perfect served with some simply steamed rice and greens.
Asian flavours are all about umami which is the 5th flavour profile after salty, sweet, sour and bitter. It essentially is anything with a very savoury fullness of flavour and things like garlic, ginger, sesame and soy are brimming with it.
Beef mince comes in many different fat contents – I like to use something around the 90% lean for this recipe. More fat adds more flavour and crisps up even more though so feel free to use a regular beef mince too.
Cheesy One Pan Mince Pasta
Kecap manis is an Indonesian sweet soy sauce. It’s thicker and more syrupy than soy sauce and has a bit of a molasses flavour to it. It’s a staple ingredient in Indonesian cooking.
Kecap manis is commonly sold in supermarkets and grocery stores, however, if you can’t find it there, an Asian grocer will always have this on the shelves.
If you’re unable to find kecap manis or maybe you want to make this recipe but don’t have it on hand, you can make a substitute at home.
Easy Ground Beef Recipes
Just mix equal parts of light soy and palm sugar (or brown sugar) in a saucepan and simmer until thick and syrupy. While this isn’t a perfect substitute, it’s close enough to make this recipe work perfectly.
Like many stir fry recipes, this one is very easy to cook. It also has only a handful of ingredients making it a great weeknight dinner idea.
Heat a little oil in a wok or pan and stir fry the beef until it starts to get crispy. Add in a little sesame oil, stir it through and it’s done. Less than 15 minutes. That crispyness is the sugars in the kecap manis caremlising. So so good!!
Old Fashioned Savoury Mince With Curry
While the beef is marinating, you can organise the sides you want to have with it. I like to serve it over some steamed rice and greens of some sort – most often broccolini. This is seriously easy stuff.
Minimal ingredients in this meal make this Crispy Asian Chilli Beef Mince a great meal when you’re staring into your pantry with no idea what to make for dinner.
It uses pantry staples that you likely already have on hand, so technically you could make this right now – as long as you have some mince on hand. Or really any meat you like.
Beef Mince Noodles (budget Meal)
This beef is purposely a ‘dry’ stir fry, meaning there is no sauce with the meat. The aim of this recipe is that nice crispy texture to the beef, however, some readers have noted they’d like extra sauce.
I’ve now added an extra sauce recipe within the recipe card that’s very quick and simple but you could also try drizzling over kewpie mayonnaise which is fantastic with this beef, just like I serve with my Karaage Chicken.
Kick those other boring stir fries to the curb and cook up a dinner that’s super easy, super fast and incredibly delicious for your family tonight. This will be a winner for sure.
