Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 onion peeled and chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled and minced
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 tablespoon shrimp paste
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 Thai chili peppers ends trimmed and minced
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 1 pound green beans ends trimmed and cut into ΒΌ-inch thick

Instructions
 

  • In a pan over medium heat, warm up the canola oil. Add onions and garlic, cooking until softened.
  • Add ground pork, breaking it apart with the back of a spoon, and cook until lightly browned.
  • Stir in shrimp paste and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about one minute.
  • Pour in coconut milk and add chili peppers. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through, and the liquid is reduced.
  • Add coconut cream and green beans, stirring to combine. Continue to cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until green beans are tender yet crisp, and the sauce is reduced, beginning to render fat.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
