Equipment
- 1 medium skillet, pan or wok
Ingredients
- 1 pound Green beans, ends trimmed and cut ¾-1 inch or sigarilyas
- 2 tablespoon avocado oil, olive oil, or similar
- 1 tablespoon Garlic, crushed
- ¾ cup Tinapang bangus, shredded
- 1 medium Onion, minced
- 1 can Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Beef powder
- 2 pieces Red thai- chilis
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Prep your vegetables: Wash and chop the green beans (or sigarilyas) into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic and chop the onion.
- Heat the oil: In a pot or pan over medium heat, add cooking oil.
- Sauté the aromatics: Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 3 minutes.
- Add the garlic and chili: Stir in the crushed garlic and chopped Thai chilis. Sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
- Coconut milk magic: Pour in the entire can of coconut milk and bring to a simmer for about 8-10 minutes. Season with beef powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Incorporate the green beans: Add the chopped green beans (or sigarilyas) to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften slightly.
- Introduce the smoky flavor: Stir in the shredded tinapang bangus and cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Simmer and thicken: Simmer the gising-gising for 5-7 minutes, or until the green beans are tender-crisp and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Adjust the heat: If you prefer a milder dish, remove some of the seeds from the Thai chilis before adding them.
- Serve and enjoy: Turn off the heat and transfer the gising-gising with tinapang bangus to a serving bowl. Serve with rice.
