Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup uncooked brown rice + about 1.5-2 cups water
8-12 oz (1/2-3/4 lb) ground pork or beef (or other ground meat)
1.5 cups mushrooms, cut into slices (fancy mushrooms like shiitake are great here, but any will do.)
1/2 medium onion, sliced into wedges or diced
1 cup carrots, julienned, or cut into match sticks, or grated*
3 Tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced or grated
4 cups chopped leafy greens - bok choy, spinach, kale, collards, chard, etc.
3 Tablespoons tamari or soy sauce, divided (or for Paleo, use 2 T coconut aminos and 1 T fish sauce)
1/2 Tablespoon vinegar (rice wine vinegar, white, or apple cider)
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder or red pepper flakes
garnish: sesame seeds and green onions

Steps:

  • Cook rice according to instructions on your package. I like to use a rice cooker. If using a pot on the stove, I recommend rinsing your rice 2-4 times, then placing in a large pot. I use the finger method (see above) to measure the rice, which usually comes to about 1 1/2 cups of water per 1 cup of rice. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil, then reduce to a lower simmer for 25 minutes. Remove from heat (but don't touch the lid!) and let "steam" for another 10 minutes off the heat before serving, if time allows.
  • Heat a large pan or wok over high heat. Dump in the ground pork/beef and let cook, undisturbed for a few minutes until it is dark brown on the bottom. Flip and repeat on the other side.
  • When the pork is cooked through, add 1 Tablespoon soy sauce and break up the meat, cooking until it is browned on all sides. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium-high. Drain off most of the oil, leaving enough to cook the vegetables (about a tablespoon or so). If you have lean meat, you might need to add a Tablespoon of butter or coconut oil. Add the onions and mushrooms and sauté until the mushrooms are a little brown.
  • Add the carrots and cook for about 5 minutes more. (Note: if using grated carrot here, just add with the next step with the leafy greens, no need to cook for the extra 5 minutes.)
  • Add the ginger, garlic, cayenne powder, rice vinegar, 1 Tablespoon tamari/soy sauce, and the leafy greens. Cook until wilted, then mix in the meat.
  • Taste, add remaining 1 Tablespoon soy sauce if needed, and adjust seasoning as desired. Serve over rice and enjoy!

STIR-FRY OPO WITH GROUND PORK



Stir-Fry Opo With Ground Pork image

Opo is an Asian squash with a flavor similar to zucchini. It looks like a long light green gourd. To prepare, I rinse, peel, seed, and chop into 1" cubes. I often stir fry this or put this in a simple soup with ground pork and onions.
