Ingredients

1 tablespoon black beans, fermented rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon ginger fresh, minced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 pound pork lean, ground
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 pound green beans chinese, trimmed, blanched
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons cornstarch

Directions

In a small bowl, mash the black beans into the garlic and ginger.

In a large wok or sauté pan heat the oil and cook the pork, stirring occasionally until all the pink is gone--about 10 minutes.

Then add the mashed fermented beans and stock, mix together and cook for 2 minutes.

Add the green beans, mix together and cook for 3 more minutes.

Meanwhile, in a bowl mix together the soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of water and cornstarch until they form a paste.

While stirring pour the cornstarch mixture into the liquid in the bottom of the wok.

The liquid will thicken and as you toss the wok, coating the beans.

Taste and re-season with salt and pepper if needed.
