Beef With Chinese Green Beans
This is the popular green bean dish that you’ll frequently find at Chinese restaurant buffets. The secret to making Chinese green beans is “dry-frying” the beans for about 7 to 10 minutes - this makes them more tender. Feel free to use Chinese longbeans if they are available. Serves 3 - 4.
Pepper Steak
Serves 4. This recipe for pepper steak is meant to provide a lot of gravy to pour over the rice. If you're not big on gravy, substitute 1 or 2 sliced tomatoes for the stewed tomatoes, and add them to the pan with the soy sauce and broth mixture.
Fried Rice
This is a basic recipe for fried rice that you can add to as desired. If adding other ingredients, increase the number of eggs to 3.
