If you’re using frozen mushrooms, make sure to thaw and drain them well. 2. Cooking the beans: In a wok pan, add a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the yellow beans, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 3-4 minutes. 3. Adding the mushrooms: Add the forest mushrooms to the pan. Their rich flavor will enhance the dish. Stir well and let them sauté together for about 5 minutes. 4. Boiling the ingredients: Pour a cup of water into the pan and cover with a lid. Let it boil for 10 minutes, so the beans and mushrooms can meld well. 5. Finalizing the dish: After 10 minutes, add the chopped red bell pepper and let everything boil for another 4-5 minutes until the pepper softens and the water reduces. You can adjust the taste with salt and a piece of grated ginger for extra flavor. 6. Serving: Once everything is cooked, remove the pan from heat and sprinkle fresh chopped parsley on top. This detail will not only add a pleasant visual aspect but will also enhance the flavors.
