Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Heat a medium pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then rice and half the garlic puree. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min. Add 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
While rice cooks, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer to a plate.
Pat pork dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Heat the same pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then pork. Pan-fry until golden, 2-3 min per side. Transfer pork to a baking sheet. Roast in the middle of the oven until pork is cooked through, 10-12 min.**
While pork roasts, thinly slice green onions. Heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add green beans and 3 tbsp water (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions and remaining garlic puree to the same pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions soften, 3-4 min. While onions cook, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, cornstarch, brown sugar and 3/4 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl) in a medium bowl. Add hoisin sauce mixture to the pan with onions. Bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 3-4 min. Remove pan from heat. Season with pepper.
Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the green onions and season with salt. Thinly slice pork. Divide rice between plates. Top with pork and green beans. Drizzle sauce over top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and remaining green onions.
