Instructions

  • In a skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened.
  • Add pork and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
  • Add vinegar and bring to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add soy sauce and water. Cover, lower heat and continue to cook until pork is cooked through and sauce is reduced.
  • Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Add long beans and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 to 5 minutes or until tender-crisp.
  • Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with fried garlic bits, if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

Allow the vinegar to boil uncovered and without stirring for a few minutes before adding the other liquids to cook off the strong acid taste.
