Ingredients

  • 400 g mixed beef and pork mince
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1–2 tbsp oil (for frying)
  • 1½ tbsp concentrated liquid stock (any kind — preferably veal or beef)
  • 1½ tbsp Japanese soy sauce
  • 3 tsp crispy chilli oil, or to taste
  • 2 tsp five spice
  • Salt and pepper, to your taste and tradition
  • 300 ml water

Method

  1. Peel and chop the onion. Finely chop the garlic.
  2. Heat a little oil in a frying pan.
  3. Brown the mince with the five spice, breaking it up into small pieces.
  4. Add the onion and fry until softened.
  5. Add the garlic and fry for another minute or so, without letting it burn.
  6. Transfer everything to a saucepan so the liquid can simmer without reducing too quickly.
  7. Add the concentrated stock, soy sauce and crispy chilli oil. Stir well.
  8. Pour in the water and simmer over a low to medium heat for about 10 minutes.
  9. Season with salt and pepper. Adjust the seasoning until it tastes just right.
