Pork and Soybean Stir fry


Stir-Fried Pork and Soybeans
http://userealbutter.com/2008/06/08/chinese-stir-fried-pork-soybeans-recipe/

1/2 lb. pork meat, cut into strips (I prefer dark meat) 
1 lb. shelled soybeans (edamame), thawed
3 stalks green onions, cut into 1-inch strips
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped

3 tbsps soy sauce
2 tbsps sesame oil
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsps vegetable oil


Mix the pork meat with the cornstarch, soy sauce, and sesame oil until the pork is evenly coated. Heat vegetable oil over high heat in a large sauté pan (frying pan, wok, whatever). When oil is hot, add garlic and green onions and sauté until fragrant. Add the pork to the pan and stir-fry until pork is nearly cooked. Add the soybeans and sauté for another 2-3 minutes. Serve hot. 


Variations:
*I made without the onions, and for the garlic, I threw a little garlic powder in instead. 
*I added 1/4 cup water and used a tad less on the soy/sesame oil for less sodium.
