Preparation
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a big pinch of salt. Add the trimmed beans and cook for 2 minutes. Drain immediately and run under cold water until completely cooled. Set aside.
Slice the pork into thin strips, then transfer to a bowl. Add the cornstarch, salt, baking soda, soy, and wine, mix well. Set aside to marinate for 10-20 minutes.
Mix the sauce ingredients in a bowl.
Add the lard or oil to a wok or large skillet over high heat.
Add the pork and stir fry for about 2 minutes, or until cooked through, stirring and tossing often.
Add the blanched green beans and chilies cook 30 seconds.
Stir the sauce in the bowl, then add it, quickly stirring it into the stir fry as it thickens.
Remove wok from heat and give a final stir. Serve with rice. Enjoy!
Notice how I didn’t have you scroll through pages of mundane nonsense to get to the recipe? Notice that there were no annoying pop-ups or ads? That was on purpose!
