Ground Beef and Green Bean Stir-Fry

(Canadian Living Magazine)

Commercial black bean sauces vary greatly in strength and saltiness. Depending on the brand, you may want to use up to 1/4 cup (50 mL) for a full, richly flavoured sauce.

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

1 lb (500 g) green beans, trimmed

2 tbsp (25 mL) black bean sauce

1 tbsp (15 mL) cornstarch

1 tbsp (15 mL) oyster sauce

1/4 tsp (1 mL) granulated sugar

2 tbsp (25 mL) vegetable oil

12 oz (375 g) regular ground beef

1 onion, sliced

3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

1 green chili (or half jalapeño pepper), thinly sliced

1/4 cup (50 mL) chopped fresh coriander

Preparation:

In saucepan of boiling water, blanch green beans for 2 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Set aside.

Meanwhile, in small bowl, whisk together black bean sauce, cornstarch, oyster sauce and sugar; set aside.

In wok or large skillet, heat oil over high heat; stir-fry beef until no longer pink, about 4 minutes.

Add onion, garlic and chili; stir-fry until onion is softened, about 3 minutes.

Add green beans and sauce mixture; stir-fry until beans are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes, adding up to 2 tbsp (25 mL) water to prevent sticking, if necessary. Stir in coriander.
