Green beans with pork, peanut and lentils
A quick writ eup for a quick tea. I had a big bag of green beans that I neeed to use up and some diced pork shoulder in th freezer. I really like dry fried bowls where everything is mixed rather than being “something on rice” or “such and such with noodles”
You will need
- A handful of green beans, trimmed and cut into inch long pieces
- A handful of diced pork (1 inch dice)
- A couple of teaspoons of soy
- A teaspoon of Lao Gan Ma Crispy Chilli in Oil
- A teaspoon of the syrup from a jar of stem ginger
- A teaspoon of fish sauce
- A handful of peanuts
- A few mint leaves finely snipped
- A couple of cupfuls of cooked lentils
Do
- Mix the pork, soy, ginger, chilli and fish sauce and set aside for a few hours
- In a big frying pan or wok fry the greanbeans in a teaspoon of oil until they’re cooked though and a touch browned
- Add the pork and cook until cooked though
- Add the lentils and the peanuts
- Keep it all moving until the peanuts take a bit of colour
- Spin the mint over the top
Result
Tasty, you can eat it with just a fork, the pork should be cooked though but not tough.
