SPICY HOISIN BEEF & GREEN BEANS STIR-FRY
I have been craving a lot for spicy food so when I thought about making hoisin beef with green beans stir-fry I knew I was going to douse it with red pepper flakes. Nothing fancy schmancy spicy concoction, just good ‘ol red pepper flakes. I can’t live without red pepper flakes in my pantry, can you? This girl likes her HOT STUFF!
Add more red pepper flakes depending on your spice threshold.
