SPICY GREEN BEANS AND PORK, ASIAN STYLE
My favorite side dish to order in Chinese restaurants. A chef gave me the ingredients and the tip of blistering the green beans. After some trial and error, I came up with this. My family and friends now demand that it be on the menu for gatherings - even if it doesn't go with the course! Can be made in advance. The amount of heat is determined by the amount of chili garlic sauce used.

Steps:
- Heat 2 cups of vegetable oil in a large wok or deep sided skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Carefully add the beans to the hot oil, and fry, stirring occasionally, until the beans are blistered, 3 to 5 minutes. Dip the beans out of the oil with a strainer, and quickly rinse them in cold water.
- Remove the oil from the wok, but do not wipe the pan. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the wok over medium heat, and stir in the garlic, ginger, and green onion. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds, and stir in the ground pork. Cook and stir the pork, breaking it up as it cooks, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Stir in the chili garlic sauce, chicken broth, and soy sauce, and bring to a boil.
- Mix the cornstarch with the water in a small bowl, stir into the pork mixture, and let simmer until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently stir the green beans into the pork sauce, heat through, and serve.

Steps:
- For the dried fruit chutney: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it begins to smoke lightly, then add the onions and garlic and sprinkle with the salt and red pepper flakes. Cook until the onions and garlic become translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the vinegar, sugar, cloves and cinnamon stick. Stir to blend and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes to let the vinegar mellow. Add the raisins, apricots, figs, cognac and 1 cup water and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool.
- For the black beans: Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add the onions, oil and a generous pinch of salt. Add the sugar and cook until the onions are caramelized and tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and beans and cook so the ingredients meld together, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
- For the spicy pork burgers: Break up the meat in a medium bowl and spread it up on the sides so that the seasoning can really permeate the meat. Add the sherry, soy sauce, Worcestershire and cayenne. Mix with your hands to make sure all of the flavors get integrated but do not overmix. (The more you work the meat, the tougher the burger.) Form the meat into 4 even patties about 3/4-inch thick.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet and add the oil. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, remove the skillet from the heat and arrange the patties in a single layer in the skillet. Return the skillet to the heat and cook, undisturbed, for 5 to 6 minutes. Rotate the patties a quarter turn and cook until cooked through, 3 to 5 more minutes. Use a metal spatula to flip the patties on their second sides and cook for an additional 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and place 2 slices of American cheese on each patty. Let the patties rest in the skillet so the cheese melts.
- Arrange the roll bottoms on a work surface and top with lettuce. Top the lettuce with the patties, spoon some of the chutney and black beans on each and finish with the roll tops.

Spicy with a hint of sweetness. You can add as many or as few red peppers as you like. It depends how hot you like your food. I like mine very spicy. And the peppers I use are hot.

Steps:
- In a small mixing bowl combine all of the dried spices (brown sugar, garlic salt, black pepper, chili powder, cayenne and chipotle peppers) mix well and set aside. Coarsely chop the onions and bell peppers, finely chop the jalapenos, mince the garlic and add to pot. Rinse and drain the kidney beans and add them along with the other beans and BBQ sauce to the pot. Add the spice mixture taking care to distribute it evenly while mixing well. Place the pork in the crock pot, cover and cook for 4-6 hrs. Cooking times will vary. Stir occasionally and when stirring begins to make the pork fall apart, vent the cover to steam off much of the moisture. Stir more frequently while thickening taking care to break up the pork so it is stringy like BBQ'd pulled pork. When it thickens to a chili like consistency it's done. Enjoy!
Tips:
- To enhance the flavor of the dish, use high-quality ingredients like fresh pork and beans.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the spiciness level to your preference. Add more or less chili peppers or cayenne pepper as desired.
- For a smokier flavor, use smoked paprika or chipotle powder.
- If you like a thicker sauce, mash some of the beans with a fork or potato masher.
- Serve the pork and beans with your favorite sides, such as rice, cornbread, or coleslaw.
