Ingredients
-
- 2 Cups of Fresh Green Beans (whole or already trimmed)
- 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
- 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper
- 2 Tablespoons toasted Sesame Seeds (untoasted is fine too)
- Coarse Salt to taste
Directions
- Steam or boil green beans for about 2 minutes (still crisp.)
- Drain the beans in a colander.
- Heat a wok or large pan over high heat.
- Pour or spray a small amount of vegetable oil and spread around the pan.
- Add the sesame oil and crushed red pepper flakes to the pan. Don't worry if the pan smokes. That's normal.
- If sesame seeds are not already toasted, add them to the wok or pan at this time.
- Add beans to the pan/wok and stir fry for several minutes.
- Sprinkle sesame seeds (if not already added) and course salt over the beans, stir, and serve.
* Sesame seeds don't have to be toasted, but it's a nice touch.
