Ingredients
- 300ml sunflower oil
- 2 packets French beans (about 400g), trimmed
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
- 1 x 3cm piece of ginger, peeled and chopped
- 2 cooked duck legs, meat removed and chopped
- 1tsp spicebag spice
- A handful of cashew nuts, roughly chopped (peanuts would be good too)
- 4tbs dark soy sauce
- 4 spring onions, finely sliced
1 Heat the oil in a wok. To test whether it is hot enough, drop one bean in to see if it sizzles.
2 Carefully add the beans to the oil and fry for five minutes or so, until the beans cook and shrivel a little.
3 Remove the beans from the oil with a slotted spoon or tongs, then drain them on some kitchen paper.
4 Pour out the hot oil (very carefully), leaving a little in the bottom of the wok.
5 Fry the garlic, chilli and ginger for one minute over a medium heat, then add the duck. Cook for two more minutes before adding the spicebag mix, the cashew nuts, followed by the beans.
6 After a couple of minutes add the soy and spring onions and serve immediately.
