I found this recipe a bit complicated, not sure how the cornstarch helps? But it turned out okay.
Nah, didn’t really like it. Felt like it needed more spices or something. Too plain.
I thought the same! I added some chili flakes and it made a big difference. Maybe try that next time!
I tried it but I think I used too much soy sauce. Ended up too salty for my taste.
I always find that soy sauce can be tricky. Maybe try less next time, or dilute it with a bit of water!
Meh, green beans r not my thing. But the pork was nice.
Looks good! Does it taste good? I’m always skeptical about these quick recipes.
Wow! Super quick and tasty. I added some chili flakes for an extra kick!
Sounds delicious! I love the idea of adding chili flakes. Will definitely try it.
Wasn’t impressed. The sauce didn’t taste right to me. Maybe my soy sauce was old?
Don’t give up! Maybe try using a fresher soy sauce next time. It can make a big difference!
I dunno, the recipe seems simple enough. Might be a cooking issue, not the ingredients?
Can’t go wrong with pork and beans! A classic combo. Very happy with this dish.
Why do you have to add cornstarch? Idk I just skip that step.
Meh. It was just bland and needed more seasoning. Will not make again.
Good recipe, but I forgot the oyster sauce and the taste was off. Will try again with it!
Fabulous! The pork was tender and delicious. I used more garlic because I love it. Will make again!
So easy to make! I didn’t have oyster sauce, so I used hoisin sauce instead. Still yummy!
Perfect dish for weeknight dinners! I could eat this every day.
This dish was yummm! My kids loved it and I made it in under 30 mins. Win!
Quick and simple recipe. Doesn’t take much time which is nice. My kids ate it without fuss!
This was amazing! The flavors were spot on, and my family absolutely loved it.
Easy enough for my kids to help with! They actually ate the green beans without fussing.
Really? My kids refuse to touch green beans. What do you do differently?
That’s awesome! Getting kids to eat veggies is such a win! 🌟
I used frozen green beans, and they got mushy. Fresh ones are better! But the sauce was tasty.
Yeah, but fresh is not always easy to find! Sometimes it’s just what you have in the freezer. Taste good anyway!
I agree! Frozen green beans are always mushy. Fresh makes a huge difference! Glad you liked the sauce!
Yum!
This is the best recipe I’ve tried in ages! The flavors are spot on. My whole family loved it!
Yumm! Made it twice this week already! 🌟
I don’t like green beans but tried it anyway. It was okay, but I think broccoli would be better!
Yum! I added some red pepper flakes for heat. It was super good, thank you!
Glad you liked it! Red pepper flakes are a great idea for some kick. 😋
Umm… what’s the point of using oyster sauce? Is it even necessary?
Oyster sauce adds a really unique flavor to dishes! It balances sweetness and saltiness, which is great for a stir-fry like this. You should definitely give it a try!
I don’t see the need for oyster sauce. Can’t you just use more soy sauce instead? Seems a bit extra to me.
Is it really 1 lb of each? Seemed like too much for just 2 people. Maybe I should’ve halved it.
You could definitely half it if it’s just for two! 1 lb each does seem like a lot. I usually make it for leftovers.
SO easy! I’m no chef, but this came out great. Thanks!
I’m glad it worked out for you! This dish is super simple and tastes amazing, right? I’ve made it a couple of times now.
Absolutely loved this recipe! The flavors were on point.
This just feels like a lot of work for a simple meal.
I get what you mean, but it’s actually pretty simple once you get going! Plus, it’s super tasty!
Honestly, it doesn’t seem like a lot of work to me. Just chop, stir, and cook! 🍽️
