Those really long beans in the asian grocery store

The search continues for new vegetables that my kids and I will actually eat. I found 'Cooking with Amy' and she has an interesting recipe I want to try. Few ingredients - Few steps

Chinese Style Green Beans (serves 4)

1 lb fresh green beans

1/4 cup vegetable oil or peanut oil (I used rice oil)

sauce:

2 Tablespoons soy sauce

2 Tablespoons wate

1 Tablespoons sherry

1 Tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon cornstarch

chili or garlic chili paste to taste (I use a teaspoon)

Wash the beans and chop off the ends. In a small bowl combine the sauce ingredients. Heat a heavy pan and add the oil. When the oil is very hot, add the beans and cook, stirring frequently until the beans are wrinkled slightly, 5-10 minutes. Scoop out the beans and drain off the oil. Drain the beans on a paper towel then return the beans and the sauce mixture to the dry pan and cook until thickened. Serve with rice.

thanks, Amy:)
