MSG is a great flavor enhancer and adds delicious umami. As always, I believe in consuming everything in moderation.

Oyster sauce is a very common Asian ingredient. Frozen peas: For green color and another layer of texture and sweetness.It adds umami, sweetness, a little funkiness, and a pretty shine to the sauce. Oyster sauce: An Asian pantry staple! It's the star ingredient in this dish.Some recipes use ketchup but I prefer the thickness and flavor of tomato paste. We add it directly with the pasta to add a bright red hue, body to the sauce, and a little sweetness. Tomato paste: Unlike traditional Italian pastas, we don't caramelize the tomato paste in this recipe.Cooking oil: Avocado oil is my favorite oil to cook, fry, and sauté with because of its high smoke point (500☏) and neutral flavor.I use a low-sodium brand to keep the salt content to a minimum. It's also the primary seasoning for the beef. If you use a fattier blend, you can drain some of excess fat before adding the pasta. Lean ground beef: I use a 88/12% blend.And save the pasta water!
