Stir-fried minced meat with green beans—it's just an ordinary combination of ingredients, but the warmth of home cooking transforms it into the most comforting flavor in my memory. Every bite is a gift of time, giving my wandering heart a place to belong.
Materials
A small bowl of minced meat (a good mix of lean and fat is best; I used a meat grinder, and I recommend a 3:7 ratio of lean to fat).
8 green beans, cut into small pieces, see picture.
3 cloves of garlic
3 red chili peppers
soy sauce
Salt, chicken bouillon
Light soy sauce
A spoonful
Oyster sauce
