Spicy Green Beans
My friend Kathy tells me that she prepares this green bean recipe for a large gathering, everyone loves it. Check the spice rack, hopefully you have dried chili pepper and black mustard seed among your spices. I French-cut the green beans by hand so this is therapeutic for me.
You will need:
1 1/4 lb. fresh green beans, frenched and steamed for 3 minutes
1 dried chili pepper (Asian variety)
1/2 tsp. black mustard seed
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 1/4 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped finely
2 Tablespoons canola oil
salt and pepper to taste
Procedure:
In a medium-sized skillet with a cover, heat oil to medium, add onion, ginger, mustard seed, chili pepper and stir about 2-3 minutes. When onion becomes translucent, add Frenched green beans that have been barely steamed. Stir beans into the spice and onion mixture, add salt and pepper to taste. Add about 2-3 teaspoons water, then cover pan and gently cook for about 5 minutes or until tender. Enjoy!
