Dry Stir-Fried Green Beans

1 rating
· 2 servings
One of our favorite ways to eat green beans is this Sichuan-style dish. It is punchy in flavor thanks to the chile and garlic. The green beans for this dish are typically deep-fried first, but we like to keep it simple and blister them in a hot wok or frying pan. Dry stir-frying also means no liquid, such as water, is added, so the flavor of the beans is not diluted and they retain a little bite, as well as a crispy texture from the slightly charred exterior.
