[print_link] The Green Bean Blanch is another modification of a recipe that I got from Ken Hom (search You Tube for more of his recipes).
Anet Raves about this one, as it is now done with blanched beans instead of deep fried beans.
So get a couple pounds of fresh blue lake green beans. trim the ends and leave them long. Blanch them in boiling water for 4 and a half minutes.
use cold water to stop the cooking process. Now the sauce – 3 cloves garlic minced – equal size pile of ginger minced 4 minced scallions, 2 Tablespoons of sherry, 2 Tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of sugar.
mis it up and roll the beans in it. then I like to dress in up with black sesame seeds sprinkled all over the disk. regular sesame seeds will do fine as well.
Serve and Enjoy!
