Ingredients
3 cups green beans (I like to use fresh Chinese Green Beans, but frozen works as well, or regular green beans are ok too)3 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar9-12 cloves of Fresh Garlic (minced garlic in a jar is ok but fresh is always better!)5 slices of fresh ginger (more if you like it spicy)1 Tbsp Soy Sauce1 Tsp Sesame Oil2 Tbsp Canola or other vegetable oil
Makes about 4 servings.
Combine garlic and ginger in a small bowl, cover with soy sauce and vinegar and set aside.
Heat oils together in a wok or on a griddle and sautee green beans on medium heat until they begin to turn bright green (about 3-5 minutes)
Pour garlic mixture over beans and continue to sautee, stirring constantly. When beans are tender or liquid has all cooked down, remove from heat.
Serve over brown or white rice. I usually serve this with my Spicy Peanut Sauce on top for a delicious easy meal. Excellent cold as leftovers or for a picnic.
