Stir-Fried Green Beans w/Fermented Black Beans

 

Recipe By : Time-Life's Fresh Ways with Vegetables.

Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:15

Categories : Asian Lowfat

Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound green beans -- trimmed

1/2 lime or lemon

1 tablespoon safflower oil

1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 Tbsp low-sodium

soy sauce and 1/4 cup water

2 tablespoons fermented black beans -- rinsed

freshly ground black pepper

 

Bring two quarts of water to a boil in a saucepan. Squeeze the lime

or lemon juice into the water, then drop in the rind. Plung the green

beans into the water and cook them for four minutes after the water

comes back to a boil - they should still be crisp. Drain the beans

and refresh them under cold running water until they are cool.

Discard the lime or lemon rind.

 

Heat the oil in a wok or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Saute

the green beans, stirring constantly, until they are tender - about

3 minutes. Turn down the heat to medium and cook one minute more.

Stir the cornstarch mixture and the black beans together. Pour this

mixture onto the green beans, sprinkle with the pepper and stir well.

Continue cooking for one minute more and transfer to a serving dish.

Serve the beans immediately.
