Green Beans

Green bean, or string bean, is one of my favorite vegetables. They are very easy to make at home. This green bean recipe is so fast, it takes me 5 minutes from start to finish! Spring is a wonderful time to try this recipe as farmers market offers an abundant supply of them. They are also available at supermarkets and food stores throughout the year.

How To Cook Green Beans

This Garlic Green Bean calls for just a few ingredients:

Minced garlic Salt Ground pepper

I am using Chinese techniques on this recipe. For the best texture, you want to flash cook the beans. A quick stir-fry and saute in a hot wok or skillet will make sure they remain crisp, with a gorgeous and vibrant green color. You can cook them longer if you like. They are called “dry-fried” green beans in Chinese and the surface become wrinkly and slightly brown. Both are delicious ways to cook fresh green beans. This recipe is the super quick, easy and anyone can make in a jiffy. Pick up a bunch of them from the store today and make this amazing side dish.
