Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat and slice it thinly against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
Wash the green beans, trim the ends, and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
Mince the garlic and grate the ginger finely.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sambal oelek, cornstarch, and water. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the pork slices to the hot skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the meat is lightly browned and cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in the green beans and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked pork to the skillet and pour the sauce mixture over the pork and green beans.
Stir everything together for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the pork and green beans evenly.
Remove from heat and serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles.
