Made with sweet peppers and flavoured with Asian soy and hoisin sauce, this stir-fry is an ideal topping over noodles and steamed rice.
Ingredients
- 1 sweet red pepper or sweet green pepper
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp minced gingerroot
- 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
- 3 cups diagonally halved trimmed green beans
- 1/2 cup beef stock
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Preparation
Seed, core and cut red pepper into thin strips; set aside.
In wok or large skillet, stir-fry beef over high heat until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer beef to plate.
Drain fat from wok; add oil. Stir-fry garlic, ginger, salt and pepper over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add green beans, red pepper and 2 tbsp (25 mL) water; cover and steam until beans and pepper are tender-crisp, 3 minutes.
Return beef and any juices to wok. Whisk together beef stock, hoisin sauce, soy sauce and cornstarch; stir into wok. Bring to boil; boil, stirring, until sauce is thickened and glossy, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with green onions.
