- Stir in the chilli paste. Simmer over a low heat, stirring, for 10-15 mins until the mince is cooked through. Meanwhile, boil the green beans for 2-3 mins. Drain and set aside.
- Add the black bean sauce and black beans to the beef, increase the heat to high and fry for another 5 mins until the sauce is reduced and glazes the beef and beans. Stir in the green beans and water chestnuts and cook for 1-2 mins more to heat through.
