Recipe from Nagi & Dozer - RecipeTin Eats · original post · full recipe on recipetineats.com

A simplified version of the popular Szechuan dish Stir Fried Green Beans with Minced Pork. Same flavour punch but made with everyday ingredients. Has intense flavour so you won't miss the sauciness of usual stir fries. Mix it up with rice then eaten with a spoon - forget chopsticks! Don’t skip charring the beans, it's the defining feature of this stir frySpiciness: Mild. Similar - try the Japanese version of this dish, on RecipeTin Japan!
