About

This is a very typical Chinese home-style dish, combining nourishing ingredients that are easily kept in stock in the kitchen and cooking them with a selection of stimulating seasonings that really help xia fan (“get the rice down”). For variety, add some diced carrots or green peas along with the green beans. If you have any leftovers, stir-fry it with leftover rice.
