Instructions

In a wok or wide skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook until softened.
Add ground pork and cook, breaking into pieces with the back of a spoon, until lightly browned. Drain excess oil as needed.
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, water, and brown sugar. Stir until blended and sugar is dissolved.
Add to ground pork and bring to a simmer.
Increase heat to high. Add green beans and carrots. Continue to cook, stirring regularly, for about 2 to 3 minutes or until vegetables are tender yet crisp.
Season with salt to taste and generously with pepper. Serve hot.

Notes

Cut the vegetables in small and uniform sizes for fast and even cooking.
You can substitute ground turkey, beef, or chicken instead of ground pork.
If you want a bit of spice, stir in chili garlic sauce or red pepper flakes to the sauce mixture.
