The Best Mongolian Moose Stir Fry

Fast, easy, tasty! Not the most traditional meal, but can’t complain when you get a meal done in 15 minutes when you are back at camp.

A little note: I like my vegetables still crunchy. There is no exception with the vegetables in this recipe. Two minutes of cooking will result in vegetables with a very good bite. If you want softer carrots, add them earlier.

  • In a meantime, mix the soy sauce, the brown sugar, the hoisin sauce, the water and the corn starch in a small bowl. When the moose is cooked, add the soy sauce mixture, the green onions and the julienned carrots. Cook for an additional 2 minutes while mixing.
  • The Mongolian Moose is done! Serve on top of basmati rice or rice noodles. Optionally, top with sesame seeds and red chili flakes.

SUBSTITUTIONS – Since we do not always have success when going outdoors or not everyone practices hunting, fishing or picking. here are a few ideas to substitute the harvested ingredients:

  • The ground moose can be replaced with ground beef or ground pork
  • The ground moose can be replaced with any ground venison meat, such as deer, elk or sheep.
