Heat oil very hot, deep fry string beans until they are wrinkled (about 3 minutes). Remove beans and drain off oil from frying pan. Pour string beans into pan, fry until dark brown. Remove and drain.
Put back only 2 Tbls. of oil, fry the pork and chopped ginger until cooked. Add the sauce, stir well over high heat until most of the sauce has evaporated; add the string beans, stir well over high heat until sauce is nearly gone. Add vinegar and sesame oil, sprinkle in chopped green onion, stir well and serve.
This dish can keep a few days, and tastes better eaten cold.
