Sesame Green Beans


I haven't been to a Chinese Buffet in years but my favorite thing to get was always the green beans.  They were crisp with a teriyaki kind of sauce and sesame seeds.  Yum.  I set out to make my own and this is the recipe I settled on.

Sesame Green Beans

1 lb  fresh Green Beans, trimmed
2 Tbsp Sesame Oil (the flavor of the oil really makes the recipe, IMO, but you can use other oil)
1-2 Tbsp Bragg's or Tamari or Soy Sauce
1-3 Tbsp Sesame Seeds

Steam the green beans for a few minutes to start them cooking but you still want them to be crisp.  Then stir fry in sesame oil 4-5 minutes.  Remove from heat, toss in Bragg's (or alternative) and sesame seeds.  Serve.


This is the full meal we usually have: Bulgogi, Sesame Green Beans and Jasmine Rice
