1. Preheat a large pan on the highest setting. Season the minced meat with salt and pepper and add a dash of olive oil to the hot pan. Fry for about 5 - 7 minutes, until it is very crispy and crumbly. Drain in a colander and set aside.
2. Wipe the pan with paper towels and reduce the heat a little. Add the sesame oil and fry the garlic, chilli and ginger with the sugar for 2 minutes. Add the drained minced meat and toss everything well. Add the fish sauce and heat again. Now add half of the lime zest and half of the lime juice to the pan
3. Clean the spring onions, cut into fine rings and stir in the pan for 30 seconds. Then take the pan off the stove.
