Vietnamese Minced Meat with Green Beans

Finely chop the garlic, shallot, and ginger. Seed and finely slice the chili pepper. Briefly sauté everything together in a pan with vegetable oil.

Add the minced meat and sear sharply for about 2 minutes until crumbly. Then add the fish sauce and green beans (if using fresh green beans, trim and halve them beforehand) and fry together for another 3-5 minutes.

Finally, fold in the fresh mint and deglaze with two tablespoons of lime juice. Season to taste with a pinch of salt and pepper.
