How to Make Stir-Fried Dutch Beans with Sausage

Stir-fried Dutch beans with sausage is a quick, flavorful dish that blends crisp-tender beans with savory, smoky sausage. Here’s a simple recipe to guide you:

Ingredients:

- 200g fresh Dutch beans, trimmed and washed

- 150g sausage (smoked or pre-cooked), sliced diagonally

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp cooking oil

- 1 tsp soy sauce

- ½ tsp sugar (optional, for balance)

- Salt to taste

- A pinch of pepper (optional)

Steps:

1. Prep the beans: Blanch the Dutch beans in boiling water for 2–3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Drain immediately and rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Set aside.

2. Cook the sausage: Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add sausage slices and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant. Remove and set aside.

3. Sauté the aromatics: In the same pan, add minced garlic and stir-fry until golden (about 30 seconds).

4. Combine and season: Return the blanched beans and sausage to the wok. Add soy sauce, sugar (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir-fry for 1–2 minutes until everything is well-coated and heated through.

Serve hot as a side dish with rice or noodles. The dish balances the crunch of the beans with the richness of the sausage, making it a family favorite. Enjoy your homemade meal!
