Step 1

1 Shred the cabbage finely using a sharp knife or a food processor.

Step 2

2 Fry the cabbage in half of the butter in a large frying or wok pan on medium-high heat. It takes a while for the cabbage to soften, but don't let it turn brown.

Step 3

3 Add spices and vinegar. Stir and fry for a couple of minutes more. Put the cabbage in a bowl.

Step 4

4 Melt the rest of the butter in the same frying pan. Add garlic, chili flakes and ginger. Sauté for a few minutes.

Step 5

5 Add ground meat and brown until the meat is thoroughly cooked and most of the juices have evaporated. Lower the heat a little.

Step 6

6 Add scallions and cabbage to the meat. Stir until everything is hot. Salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle with sesame oil before serving.

Step 7

7 Mix together the wasabi mayonnaise by starting with a small amount of wasabi and adding more until the flavor is just right. Serve the stir-fry warm with a dollop of wasabi mayonnaise on top.
