Directions

Place oil in a wok or large skillet and heat over medium-high heat.

Cover the wok and cook for 6 minutes, lifting the lid occasionally to stir the ingredients to ensure even cooking.

Add the sliced mushrooms to the wok. Cover and cook for another 3 minutes, stirring once or twice to mix.

In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in 1/2 cup of water.
-
Uncover the wok, pour in the cornstarch solution, and stir continuously until the sauce thickens into a gravy.

Note
Ingredient Substitutions: Ground beef or chicken may be substituted for the shredded pork. Canned mushrooms (1 cup) can be used in place of fresh mushrooms if needed.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water to restore the sauce consistency.
Tip: If using frozen green beans, there is no need to thaw them beforehand; they will cook perfectly in the covered wok.
