Sloppy Joe | The American Burger Classic

Heat the olive oil in a large pan and brown the ground beef vigorously over medium heat until it is crumbly and cooked through.

Cut the onion and green bell pepper into approx. 1 cm cubes. Add both to the meat in the pan. Finely chop or press the garlic, add it as well, and sauté everything together for about 3 minutes until the vegetables soften.

Stir in ketchup, brown cane sugar, chili powder, and mustard. Pour in approx. 100 ml of water, mix everything well, and simmer with the lid closed for about 15 minutes.
