0.68 kg green beans

1 small bunch green onions (scallions)

1.02 kg lean ground pork

black pepper

chili-garlic sauce

Instructions

Preheat a large pot over medium-high heat.

While the pot heats up, wash and dry the fresh produce.

Once the pot is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add pork, salt, and pepper; cook, breaking the meat apart with a spoon, until browned and crumbly, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. (Reserve pot with drippings for later use.)

Meanwhile, trim and small dice eggplants. Place in a large bowl.

Trim and halve green beans crosswise. Add to the bowl with the eggplant.

Trim and cut green onions crosswise into thin pieces. Add to the bowl.

Peel and mince ginger and garlic. Add both to the bowl.

Return pot (with drippings) to medium-high heat, add more oil, and swirl to coat the bottom. Add veggies, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and softened, 5-6 minutes. (Reserve bowl for the next step.)

Meanwhile, place soy sauce, vinegar, chili-garlic sauce, and additional oil in the reserved bowl. Whisk to combine the stir-fry sauce.

When the veggies are done, return pork to the pot, along with sauce, and stir to combine. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until pork and veggies are coated in sauce, 3-4 minutes more. Remove from heat.

To serve, divide stir-fry between plates or bowls. Top with sesame seeds and enjoy!
