Ingredients
- 1.5 lb Long beans
- 0.5 lb Ground pork
- 0.25 cup Pickled mustard greens
- 4 Dried chiles
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 tbsp Light soy sauce
- 1 tsp Dark soy sauce
- 0.5 tsp Sugar
- 3 tbsp Peanut oil
Steps
- Cut the long beans into 2-inch lengths. Dry-fry them in a hot wok with no oil 5 minutes until blistered and wrinkled; remove. This step gives them their smoky chew.
- Brown the pork with the pickled greens, garlic, and chiles until crisp at the edges.
- Return the beans with both soy sauces, the sugar, and a splash of water. Toss 3 minutes until the beans drink up the sauce.
- Serve over rice. Salty, funky, a little spicy — the pickled greens do as much work as the pork.
