Stir Fried French Beans Recipes

STIR-FRIED GARLIC GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil, season with salt and add the green beans. Boil 1 minute, drain and rinse with cold water, then place on a kitchen towel to dry thoroughly. (If vegetables aren't dry when you add them to the hot wok or pan, they will splutter and braise instead of stir-frying.) Place within reach of your wok or pan.
• Combine the soy sauce and wine or sherry in a small bowl or measuring cup and place within reach of your wok or pan. Place the garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes in another small container near the burner.
• Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan. Add the garlic and ginger, stir-frying for no more than 10 seconds, and then add the green beans. Toss together, then add the soy sauce and sherry and stir-fry for one to two minutes, until the beans are crisp-tender. Remove from the heat and serve.

• Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan on medium level and crackle the mustard seeds. Add the curry leaves, chopped green chillies and ginger. Fry lightly. Add the chopped onions and fry on medium level for about 2 minute(s).
• Mix in the french beans(I usually boil them for a fewminutes or microwave them for 5 mins or so to remove the raw taste), turmeric and salt. Sprinkle the water and cook covered on low level for about 10 minutes or till the beans are cooked but firm. Mix in the grated coconut. Sprinkle the lemon juice before serving (optional).
• Serve hot with White rice , chapathi or Warm dinner rolls.
