Hot and Heavenly String Beans

 

3 tbsps. olive oil

1 lb. fresh string beans, ends trimmed, cut into halves

1 teaspoon ground ginger

4 to 5 large cloves garlic, minced very finely

1 tsp. salt

1 to 3 tablespoons hot sauce, to taste

1/2 cup toasted pine nuts

 

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add your string

beans and saute until they look very green and their skin looks a

bit blistered, about 5 to 10 minutes. Dust the ground ginger over the

string beans, stir, and cover the pan to steam them for another

5 to 10 minutes, or until tender but firm. Add finely minced garlic,

salt, and hot sauce, stirring and raise the heat to medium-high.

Cook briefly, about 2 or 3 minutes, just until hot sauce is absorbed

and garlic is aromatic but no longer seems too pungent. Add toasted

pine nuts and remove from heat.
