Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound green beans, trimmed
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon soy sauce, low-sodium if desired
1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon peanut oil or canola oil

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, season with salt and add the green beans. Boil 1 minute, drain and rinse with cold water, then place on a kitchen towel to dry thoroughly. (If vegetables aren't dry when you add them to the hot wok or pan, they will splutter and braise instead of stir-frying.) Place within reach of your wok or pan.
  • Combine the soy sauce and wine or sherry in a small bowl or measuring cup and place within reach of your wok or pan. Place the garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes in another small container near the burner.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan. Add the garlic and ginger, stir-frying for no more than 10 seconds, and then add the green beans. Toss together, then add the soy sauce and sherry and stir-fry for one to two minutes, until the beans are crisp-tender. Remove from the heat and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Trim the beans properly: Remove the tough ends of the beans by snapping them off or cutting them off with a knife. You can also string the beans if desired, but this is not necessary.
  • Blanch the beans briefly: Blanching the beans in boiling water for a few minutes helps to preserve their鮮豔的綠色and crisp texture. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately remove the beans from the boiling water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Chinese green beans can be seasoned with a variety of ingredients, such as soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. You can also add other vegetables, such as bell peppers, carrots, or onions, to the dish.
  • Cook the beans over high heat: Chinese green beans are best cooked over high heat so that they remain crisp and tender. Stir-frying is a great way to cook green beans, as it allows you to quickly cook the beans without overcooking them.

Conclusion:

Chinese green beans are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. They are packed with nutrients and can be cooked in a variety of ways. With a little practice, you can easily make this classic Chinese dish at home.
