Classic Sichuan Dry-Fried Long Beans with Minced Pork

This traditional Sichuan dish, known as Gan Bian Si Ji Dou, features tender long beans that are dry-fried until blistered and wrinkled for a unique texture. Tossed with savory minced pork, numbing Sichuan peppercorns, and preserved mustard greens, it delivers an explosion of spicy and umami flavors.

Ingredients

1 lb Chinese long beans, cut into 3-inch lengths
4 oz ground pork
2 tbsp Sichuan preserved mustard greens (Ya Cai), chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
8 dried red chili peppers
1 tsp Sichuan peppercorns
1 tbsp Shaoxing cooking wine
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1/2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp neutral cooking oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add the long beans and stir-fry for roughly 6-8 minutes, pressing them against the pan occasionally, until the skins are wrinkled and blistered. Remove beans and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and the ground pork. Stir-fry until the pork is crispy and browned.

  4. 4

    Add the minced garlic, ginger, dried red chilies, and Sichuan peppercorns. Cook for 1 minute until aromatic.

  5. 5

    Stir in the preserved mustard greens (Ya Cai) and cook for another minute.

  6. 6

    Return the blistered beans to the pan. Add the Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, and sugar.

  7. 7

    Toss everything together rapidly over high heat for 1-2 minutes until the flavors are combined and the liquid has evaporated. Serve hot.
