Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 These remind me of the ubiquitious green beans that can be found on almost every single Chinese buffet I've ever seen. From start to finish, they take about 10-15 minutes to make, so you can have these delicious beans on the table in no time at all. The fresh ginger and garlic make these especially savory. To see a picture of the finished recipe, visit http://www.28cooks.com Asian Green Beans 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed 4 cloves garlic, minced 6 thin slices of fresh ginger 1 scallion, minced 3 tbsp sesame oil 1 tbsp sugar 2 tbsp soy sauce 1/4 c water Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add beans and boil for 3 minutes. Remove from pot and immediately plunge into a bowl of cold water. Allow to sit for a minute or two, then drain and set aside. In a wok over medium high heat, heat sesame oil. Add garlic, ginger, and scallions, and saute for 2 minutes. Add sugar and soy sauce, and bring to a boil, stirring well. Add beans and water, and cook for 3 minutes, or until beans are at desired tenderness. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!
