Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1½ tablespoons dry sherry or white wine
  • ½ teaspoon Asian sesame oil
  • 1¼ teaspoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cornstarch
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon dry mustard
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 pound green beans, ends trimmed
  • 7 ounces shiitake or white mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

Method

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce, water, dry sherry, sesame oil, sugar, cornstarch, red pepper flakes and mustard together. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the beans and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 7-10 minutes. Transfer beans to large plate.

Step 3

Add remaining oil to pan. Cook mushrooms for 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, then add the garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Return the beans and sauce to the pan and cook until sauce is slightly thickened and the vegetables are evenly coated. Serve immediately.
