# Components:
→ Beef & Sauce
01 - 14 oz ground beef
02 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
03 - 3 tablespoons soy sauce
04 - 2 tablespoons honey
05 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar
06 - 1 teaspoon sesame oil
07 - 1 teaspoon chili flakes
08 - Salt, to taste
09 - Black pepper, to taste
→ Pasta
10 - 10 oz spaghetti
11 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
→ Garnish
12 - 2 green onions, finely sliced
13 - 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
# Directions:
01 - Prepare spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain thoroughly, drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
02 - In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes. Whisk well until the honey dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
03 - In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté minced garlic in a small amount of oil until fragrant. Add ground beef, season lightly with salt and black pepper, and cook until deeply browned, using a spatula to break up any large pieces.
04 - Pour the prepared sauce over the beef. Stir to coat evenly and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces to a glossy, sticky glaze.
05 - Add the cooked spaghetti and finely sliced green onions to the skillet. Toss thoroughly over low heat until the pasta is evenly coated and heated through.
06 - Transfer to plates or a serving dish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and extra green onions if desired. Serve immediately.
