Step 1

Remove the ends of the green beans by snapping the tips with your fingers or trimming with a knife. Rinse the beans and dry them thoroughly with kitchen towels or paper towels.

Step 2

In a medium pot or wok, add about ½ inch of oil. Heat the oil on medium high heat until about 350°F. While the oil is heating, prepare a plate lined with paper towels.*You can also check to see if the oil is hot enough by placing the tip of a wooden chopstick in the oil. The oil should sizzle instantly with lots of bubbles.*

Step 3

In batches, add the dried green beans into the oil and flash fry them for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how cooked you like your green beans. Remove the green beans from the oil and let them drain the prepared plate with paper towels.

Step 4

Drain the oil into a bowl or container, leaving about 1 to 2 teaspoons of oil in the pan.*If you're uncomfortable with pouring out hot oil, let it cool before handling it, and use a new pan.*

Step 5

Heat the pan over medium heat until hot and add the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic until fragrant and slightly browned. Turn off the heat and add the flash fried green beans. Season with the salt and toss until everything is evenly mixed.

Step 6

Transfer the garlic green beans onto a plate and enjoy! You can also drizzle a bit of homemade chili oil for extra fragrance and a little spice.
