Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
1 1/2 tablespoons oriental sesame oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Cook green beans in large pot of boiling water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain. Transfer green beans to large bowl of ice water to cool. Drain again. Pat green beans dry. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Wrap green beans in paper towels and enclose in resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate.)
  • Heat oil in heavy large wok or nonstick skillet over high heat. Add green beans and stir-fry until heated through, about 2 minutes. Add soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and pepper. Stir-fry until sauce reduces slightly and loosely coats green beans, about 2 minutes longer. Add sesame seeds and toss to coat. Transfer green bean mixture to bowl and serve.

These green beans were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some garlic and ginger next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover green beans. I added some chopped carrots and snow peas and it was a delicious stir-fry.

I'm not a big fan of green beans, but these were really good. The sauce was flavorful and the green beans were crispy.

I followed the recipe exactly and the green beans were still undercooked. I had to cook them for an additional 5 minutes.

The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the green beans were cooked perfectly.
