Beef and Green Beans with Black Bean Sauce Recipe
Serious eating moments / Shao Z.
Growing up without a plate of Chinese vegetables on the table for dinner was like not eating rice: it was simply unthinkable. Quick to cook simple and delicious Chinese vegetables are a great way to add a vegetable side to your meal.
And okay maybe this dish—made with equal parts beef and greens in a light but flavorful garlicky black bean sauce—isn’t really a side dish. And since I’m using a mixture of kale and frisee it’s not really a “Chinese green” either. But the basic techniques I use—just a quick stir-fry without blanching—is a method that works with any kind of hearty green Chinese or not.
