Instructions
- Wash and trim the pointy hard ends of green beans. Optional: feel free to chop them into smaller segments.
- In a wok or large pan on medium heat, melt butter and add vegetable oil to prevent the butter from burning.
- Once butter has melted, add minced garlic and fry for 10 seconds. Then stir in red chili flakes for 5 seconds.
- Toss in green beans. Once tossed, add water.
- Cover and let this cook for 6-8 minutes for desired texture (6 minutes for crisp beans and 8 minutes for softer beans). Toss occasionally.
- Season with sesame oil and salt. Enjoy!
