    Ingredients

    • 350 g long beans or French green beans, cut into 2 inch pieces
    • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
    • 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
    • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
    • 1 tsp Golden Mountain sauce or Maggi Seasoning (or sub extra soy sauce)
    • 1 tsp shrimp tomalley (“shrimp paste”), optional
    • 1 ½ tsp sugar
    • ¼ tsp white pepper
    • ¼ - ½ cup water
    • 1 salted duck egg

    Ingredients and Kitchen Tools I Use


    Instructions

    In a small bowl mix together oyster sauce, soy sauce, Golden Mountain Sauce, and shrimp paste, if using.

    Cut the salted duck egg in half through the shell. Using a spoon cut one half of the egg yolk into chunks and then scoop out the chunks. Scoop out the other half in one piece and slice into wedges.

    In a wok, sauté garlic in a little vegetable oil until it starts to turn golden brown. Add the beans and toss quickly. Add about ¼ cup of water, the sauce mixture, sugar, and white pepper; stir until the beans are done to your liking, adding more water if needed.

    When done, toss in the chunks of salted duck eggs. Serve on a plate, top with wedges of salted duck eggs. Serve with jasmine rice or as a side dish to any meal!

      This was delicious! I added shallots with the garlic. I didn’t have the salted duck egg but it was still tasty.

      Love this, even though I can almost never source long beans or duck eggs. Works just as well with green beans and a fried egg. Frankly, I prefer it with the runny yolk of a fried egg than the sliced yolk of a boiled egg. But to each their own. Regardless, this is a magnificent dish that doesn't take 40 mins peeling and chopping!

        Love this simple sauce!
        Instead of egg I used sliced andouille sausage, browned and set aside before adding garlic to pan, then tossed back in at the end. Excellent dish!!
