Shopping List
  • 1 pound ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons mirin (we use this one)
  • 2 tablespoons sake (Note 1)
  • 1 tablespoon tamari
  • 1/2 tablespoon corn starch
  • 3 tablespoons miso (we use mellow white miso)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut sugar or cane sugar
  • 2 scallions, sliced

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Grate the ginger. Set aside.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, combine the water, mirin, sake, soy sauce, and starch. Stir well.
  3. Step 3: Heat the sesame oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ground turkey and ginger. Cook until the meat is no longer pink, about 5 to 6 minutes. Keep breaking it up into small pieces with a spatula.
  4. Step 4: Drain the liquid from the turkey and place it back in the pan over medium heat. Add the miso and sugar. Mix this into the meat until well combined, about 1 minute.
  5. Step 5: Pour in the soy sauce mixture and stir until the cooking liquid has reduced to your liking, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the scallions in the final minute.
  6. Serve: Enjoy! This is great over a bowl of rice and bok choy or broccoli.

Recipe Notes

Note 1: No sake? In a pinch, you can substitute with an equal amount of water and a little more mirin.
