TIPS

Here are some tips for the preparation of Hoisin Beef and Green Bean Stir-Fry

  • Slice The Beef Thinly: Thin slices cook quickly and absorb the sauce better.
  • Use Fresh Green Beans: Fresh green beans provide the best texture and slight crunch.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Add a splash of rice vinegar or a pinch of chilli flakes to balance the sweetness of hoisin sauce.
  • Prevent Burning: Stir constantly when adding garlic to avoid bitterness.
  • Boost The Flavour: Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped spring onions for extra depth.

VARIATIONS

  • Vegetarian Alternative: Replace beef with tofu or tempeh for a plant-based version.
  • Spicy Kick: Add a finely chopped red chilli or a drizzle of sriracha.
  • Extra Vegetables: Include bell peppers, mushrooms or carrots for more variety.
  • Different Protein Options: Swap beef for chicken, shrimp or pork for a unique twist.
  • Low-Sodium Option: Use a reduced-sodium hoisin sauce or coconut aminos.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan over medium heat to maintain texture.
  • Freezing: Cooked beef can be frozen separately for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
  • Meal Prep: Pre-slice the beef and green beans in advance for quicker cooking.
