Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tb Soy sauce
2 tb Chicken broth or water
2 tb Dry sherry
1 ts Sesame oil
1 ts Rice or white vinegar
1 ts Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 ts Crushed hot red pepper
1/3 c Vegetable oil
1 1/4 lb Green beans -- trimmed
1/2 lb Ground pork
3 cl Garlic -- minced
1 ts Fresh ginger -- minced
1 Scallion -- chopped
In a small bowl; combine soy sauce, chicken broth, sherry, sesame
oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, & hot pepper; set aside. In a wok or
12" skillet, heat vegetable oil until very hot but not smoking. In
2 batches, fry green beans over high heat, turning often with kitchen
tongs, until bright green & just beginning to brown, about 2 minutes.
Transfer beans to paper towels to drain. Discard oil remaining in wok.
Reduce heat to medium. Add pork, garlic, & ginger & cook, stirring to
break up lumps of meat, until pork loses its pink color, about
3 minutes. Add green beans & stir-fry 1 minute longer. Stir in
reserved sauce & cook until liquid isalmost evaropated, about
1 minute. Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle scallion over top.
This recipe also works well if you use 2 to 3 tb oil in a nonstick
wok or pan.
