Instructions:

1. Prepare Rice Noodles:
- Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Heat Oil:
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook Pork:
- Add the thinly sliced pork fillets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté Aromatics:
- In the same skillet, add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened.
- Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for an additional minute, until fragrant.
5. Cook Vegetables:
- Add the green beans, carrots, and zucchini to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
6. Mix Corn Flour:
- In a small bowl, mix the water and corn flour until smooth.
7. Combine Ingredients:
- Return the cooked pork to the skillet and stir in the soy sauce, mirin, and the corn flour mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and everything is well combined.
8. Serve:
- Add the cooked rice noodles to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce. Cook for an additional minute to heat through.
9. Garnish and Serve:
- Transfer the stir-fry to plates or a serving dish. Garnish with any additional desired toppings, such as sliced green onions or sesame seeds, and serve hot.

Tips:

- Ensure that all your vegetables are prepped and ready to go before you start cooking. Stir-frying is a quick process, and having everything prepared beforehand will make it easier.

- Cut the pork fillets into thin, even slices to ensure they cook quickly and evenly.

- Use a high smoking point oil, such as olive oil, to prevent burning during the high-heat stir-frying process.

- If you like your vegetables crunchy, reduce the cooking time slightly.

- Mix the corn flour with water thoroughly to avoid lumps in the sauce.

- Adjust the soy sauce and mirin quantities based on your taste preference. Add more if you like a stronger flavor.

Your Pork and Bean Stir-Fry is now ready to be served! Enjoy this delightful and vibrant dish with your family or guests. The combination of tender pork, crispy vegetables, and savory sauces creates a balanced and delicious meal that’s sure to become a favorite.
