heat veg. oil until very hot but not smoking. In 2 batches, fry green beans
over high heat, turning often with kitchen tongs, until bright green & just
beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer beans to paper towels to
drain. Discard oil remaining in wok.

Reduce heat to medium. Add pork, garlic, & ginger & cook, stirring to break

sprinkle scallion over top.

This recipe also works well if you use 2-3 tablespoons of oil in a nonstick
wok or pan.
