Ingredients

  • 400 grams green beans
  • 250 grams ground pork
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (or your preferred chili sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional, for extra heat)
  • 2 stalks green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Trim the ends off the green beans and cut them in half if they're long. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sriracha, sesame oil, sugar, cornstarch, and water. Stir well to combine and set aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet, stirring constantly for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the ground pork to the skillet and cook, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the cooked pork from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Immediately add the green beans and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp. If needed, add a splash of water to help the beans steam-cook.

Step 7

Return the cooked ground pork to the skillet with the green beans.

Step 8

Pour the sauce mixture over the pork and green beans. Stir everything together well, ensuring that the sauce evenly coats the ingredients. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

If desired, sprinkle red chili flakes over the dish for extra heat.

Step 10

Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Step 11

Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
