A meal like this can be made in about twenty minutes, Those of us who don’t want to rely on processed or frozen food need th ese ideas.   Crack slaw is one of those easy, approachable recipes that is a savior when you’re eating low carb and you’re short on time. I’m not sure where this was invented or created. There are many recipes for it on the web and everyone puts their own spin on it. My take for crack slaw is to slather it with an easy three-ingredient comeback sauce. One of the ways I like crack slaw is to use a mixture of ground beef and ground pork because it makes me feel like I’m eating an egg roll. You can choose your ground meat. Most use beef, but the pork adds in a little extra flavor, resembling more of  that egg roll taste. How to Make Crack Slaw with Comeback Sauce It generally start with a little olive oil or avocado oil with some garlic, followed by ground meat. Once the meat is browned, l’ll add in the cabbage, fresh ginger, sesame oil, tamari or soy sauce. My secret for crack slaw is using my own homemade comeback sauce at the end. Tip for Browning Ground Beef This is a great tip that actually works for browning ground beef. I don’t know why it works, but it does. Add 1/4 teaspoon baking soda to 2 tablespoons water. Pour over raw beef and wait 15 minutes before frying. The Comeback Sauce My comeback sauce is pretty simple. I use sriracha, mayonnaise, and a touch of soy sauce (tamari). I’ve seen recipes with a long list of ingredients, but this does it for me. I’ve tried adding in various ingredients and they did not work! The ratio is mayo/sriracha is 4/1 and the tamari is to taste. You may want to add a tablespoon of tamari, but I would start with a teaspoon at a time. It’s so good.  It has the acid, fat and salt necesary. Creamy, tangy, and cool enough to counteract some of the heat in the crack slaw. So tell me, do you have a secret sauce recipe? I’d love to hear about it. More Ground Beef Ideas Ground Beef Cabbage Stir Fry Stuffed Cabbage Ground Beef with Peas and Onions, (most popular recipe).
