In a skillet, brown the ground beef along with the ginger and garlic until beef is fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease.
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar and hoisin sauce. Pour into ground beef. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes to blend flavors. Meanwhile in another small dish, combine the water with cornstarch. Pour the mixture into the ground beef and stir until sauce thickens.
