The small amount of brown sugar creates a slightly sweet balance to the heat of the Asian chili sauce.
Chinese Long Beans
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 6″ lengths (Chinese long beans if you can find them)
- 1 teaspoon Asian dark sesame oil
- 2 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Asian hot chili sauce (found in the Asian food aisle at the grocery store)
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
Place beans in a steamer basket over 1 inch of boiling water, steam for 5-6 minutes. Or boil water in a skillet, add green beans and a pinch of salt, cook for 5-6 minutes or until tender. Drain.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add garlic, cook 30 seconds, add green beans, chili sauce and sprinkle with brown sugar. Cook until tender 2-3 minutes.
