- 1 tablespoon oil peanut or sesame
- 2 shallots diced (about 4 tbsp)
- 6 cloves garlic thinly sliced
- 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed
- ¼ cup rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- ½ tsp dry ginger
- Sea Salt to taste
In a large, heavy pan, heat oil until shimmery.
Add shallots and garlic, sitr frequently to prevent burning.
When shallows and garlic have browned slightly, add green beans and toss.
Cook about 8 minutes, until green beans start to soften.
Deglaze pan with rice wine, stir well.
Add sauces and ginger, mix.
Taste to see if the dish needs any salt (do check- or it might get too salty).
When green beans are as soft as you'd like them, remove and plate!
