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.
Ingredients
- 1 lb green beans, trimmed
- 2 tbsp black bean sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1/4 tsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 12 oz regular ground beef
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 green chili or jalapeño pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup 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.
