Asian Black Bean Sauce

I think the black beans should be mashed up a bit before you proceed.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons peanut oil
• 2 tablespoon fermented black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons rice wine
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch

Directions

Heat a wok or heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil, the black beans and garlic. Sitr-fry about 12 seconds. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir-fry about 1 minute or until sauce thickens.
