How to Stir-Fried Green Beans with Pork: A Complete Guide

Stir-fried green beans with pork is a quick, delicious dish loved for its crisp-tendrils green beans and savory肉片. Here’s a simple, step-by-step guide to make it at home.

Ingredients: 250g fresh green beans (trimmed and snapped into 2-inch pieces), 150g pork loin (thinly sliced), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, ½ tsp sugar, 1 tbsp cooking oil, and a pinch of salt.

Instructions:

1. Prep the meat: Marinate the sliced pork with ½ tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, and a dash of pepper for 10 minutes to tenderize.

2. Blanch the beans: Boil water, add green beans, and cook for 2 minutes. Drain immediately and rinse with cold water to keep them crisp.

3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry pork until lightly browned (2-3 minutes), then remove. Sauté garlic until fragrant, add blanched beans, and stir-fry for 1 minute.

4. Season and combine: Return pork to the wok. Add remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and salt. Toss everything evenly for 1-2 minutes until well-coated.

Serving Tip: Garnish with sesame seeds or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra flavor. This dish pairs perfectly with steamed rice, offering a balance of protein, crunch, and umami. Enjoy your homemade stir-fried green beans with pork!
