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.

Hamburger Petal Pie

This is a great recipe! Something different to do with hamburger, easy to make and tastes great. The biscuits actually make a really nice light crust. This one is in my favourites and will be repeated often on my dinner table!
