Yes… I knew my great grandmother and she was the best! Inspired by her, this ground beef recipe is simply delicious. Happy Sunday!

[@woodswal]

I am going to try this. Plus, I will be going to the Asian market to get that brand of oyster sauce.

[@shuexx]

[@sammydavis8722]

Not all of us got to meet our great grandparents. You are fortunate.

[@gayle525]

I knew two of my great grandmas, one great grandpa and numerous great aunts and uncles.

[@laurakramer396]

I was 20 when my Grt Grandma passed. She never made dinner for the family since she usually ate out when we were all together.

[@Virtuenow]

1 lb ground beef, 1 tbsp oil, 2 tsp shaoxing wine, 2 tsp soy sauce, 2 tsp cornstarch, mix with hand. Sauce: 1 cup beef broth, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 2 tbsp dark soy 1 tbsp brown sugar; chop 1/2 onion, 1-3 garlic cloves. Slurry = 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1-2 tbsp cold water. Green onion for garnish chop about 3 sticks) Optional: ginger, and/or cilantro. 1 lb spaghetti noodles. Finish w/a drizzle sesame oil. Thanks!

[@rose8662]

Perfect! Thank you!

💌Really appreciate you writing them down for us!!

[@nicaurybaez2008]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe Flo. I discovered your channel recently and I’m a fan. All of your recipes are loved by my family. My husband is Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese and I’m Dominican. My girls love the Asian fusion dinner. God bless tou

[@edgarmooney874]

Just made this tonight. Added Ginger and Red Chili pepper. I halved the pasta and stuck to the rest of your recipe. The scallions as a garnish and sesame seed oil was spot on. Wife and I have leftovers for tomorrow. Very yummy and voted to add to our rotation. We had some green beans as a side dish. Awesome. Maybe brussel sprouts tomorrow.

[@willc323]

I just found this channel and really liking Flo. I'm a single dad so this really helps giving the current prices of food. I want to be able to provide my family simple good foods with fantastic taste.

[@a2offsuit]

My late motherade a dish she called Chinese Sloppy Joe. Ground beef, diced onions. Sauce of chicken stock, oyster sauce and cornstarch slurry to thicken. Finish with sesame oil and green onions. Served over rice w/a raw egg on top.

[@DavidHumphrey-lz2ye]

Saw this and made it 3 hours later. Used Ground Pork, Matchstick Carrots, Diced Red Pepper and everything else to the word of the recipe. Will be making it again soon ! Thanks So Much for another excellent dish. ;-)

[@bchang227]

My mom made this for us when we were younger. It tastes great with cilantro and ginger! It's basically using whatever you have left in your fridge and pantry.

[@HatcherRN]

Wow that sounds so yummy and it's easy! I've even put my beloved "Flo's beef and tomato" over pasta before when I'm not in the mood for rice. It's an amazing "mashup" too that my whole family loves. Personally, I could eat it daily 😊

[@kathleenwagner7444]

Every few months I buy several big pieces of ginger, peel it, and whirl it in the food processor. Then I spread it on an oiled baking sheet and freeze it. When it's frozen I cut it into small pieces (for curry) and larger pieces (for stir-fry) and wrap them in little twists of plastic wrap. Then for months I have fresh ginger ready to pop into dishes I'm making for dinner.

[@99zanne]

Lucky u, to ave memories of a great grandparent,

[@anitadunphy7837]

This looks delicious. You were so fortunate to have a great grandmother in your life. I only met my grandmother around 6 times since she was in Germany and I was born here in the USA. I do have fond memories of being there and remember all the delicious food she made for me most of which she grew or raised. Thanks for sharing your life and recipes. Stay well guys.

Thanks so much, Anita! I was actually privileged to know 2 great grandmothers and a great grandfather.

[@anitadunphy7837]

[@ulala9898]

Came across your IG post for this randomly. Without knowing the ingredients at first, I already KNEW that I will like this. I will make it in December after I've finished my elimination diet! Thank you.

[@poopypants814]

You make a great team!

[@dannyspon]

Reminds me of my mom’s spaghetti. It was spaghetti and ketchup! She immigrated to the USA and saw spaghetti but didn’t know what the sauce was. So spaghetti being red, it must be ketchup! Loved eating it.

[@gypsymom0819]

What a cute story! Spaghetti is my favorite so I could probably eat it with anything.

Flo and Dude, just finished cooking and eating this dish of wonderfulness, mm.mm.good. In a 12" wide 3" deep stir fry pan and a bit of improvisation, 2 raw garlic, 1 whole head of roasted garlic, and chili garlic....yup.yup.yup. Gluten-free spaghetti cause this mama's tummy does not tolerate the regular one any longer. Oh! my word, I only added 1 tsp of chili garlic until the youngin (22) said more, so, 3 more, and it sure added that extra umf! with an uppercut 💪, bam! with a punch 👊. Inspired to get me the wok and keep on truckin and rockin with your channel. Abundantly appreciated. See yall in the next. 🥰😊

[@chaasfranks948]

Very nice flavor. Light for light color add yellow bell pepper and a few frozen peas. Nice job. definitely a keeper for my recipe collection. Thanks Simple and fast

Really appreciate this recipe; It's delicious, hearty "shovel food" for my 18 year old son. He ate a third of the dish in one sitting!

[@kathleenwagner7444]

Tell me about it! We had four boys in six years, so for quite a long time we had the whole lot of them in their teens or early twenties, when they need food constantly. I ended up baking bread every day so that there was always something wholesome for them to find when they did the hungry walk through the kitchen.

[@markm5174]

So very good. Like an Asian bolognese, yet I like it more.🥰

[@freezo244]

I’ve made it three times. To cut down on the carbs, I make the meat by itself and we put it over a bed of rice or salad greens or both. I also add thawed green peas or edamame with the onions. SO GOOD ! Thanks, Flo!
