Mustard Glazed Yardlong Beans

Ingredients

• Golf ball-size amount of ground pork or sausage
• 2 teaspoons oil
• 1⁄4 cup chopped onions
• 1 bunch long beans, cleaned and cut into 1-2” pieces
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons mirin, sweet vermouth, or apple juice
• 2 tablespoons broth or water
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce

Directions

Mix together broth, Dijon, and soy sauce and set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add pork. Using a wooden spoon, break apart the meat until you have very small pieces. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown. Add beans and garlic and stir together until fragrant. Drizzle veggies with mirin, vermouth, or apple juice and stir until liquid is evaporated. Stir in soy sauce mixture, reduce heat to low, cover and cook about 7 minutes, until beans are tender. Taste for salt and add more soy sauce if needed.
