- To the same a large bowl, combine the onion, garlic and ground beef. Heat a large frying pan over medium high heat. When hot, swirl in the cooking oil. Add in the contents of the bowl and saute for 5 minutes or until the beef is no longer pink. Add in the miso paste and cook an additional minute.
