    Ingredients

    • 1 1/2 lb string beans trimmed
    • 1 c. vegetable oil
    • 1 Tbsp. minced scallions (green and white parts)
    • 1 Tbsp. minced garlic
    • 1/2 tsp Szechuan chili paste or possibly warm sauce
    • 2 Tbsp. soy sauce
    • 1 Tbsp. dry sherry or possibly rice wine
    • 1 tsp sugar

    Directions

    1. Wash the beans under running water. Dry the beans well on paper towels.
    2. In a wok or possibly skillet, heat the oil till just before it smokes. Add in the beans, standing back to avoid being spattered with oil. Cook the beans over high heat, stirring and turning frequently, till they are wrinkled and lightly browned, about 7 min. Remove the beans with a slotted spoon and place in a colander to drain. Set aside.
    3. Throw away all but about 2 Tbsp. of oil from the skillet. Over high heat, reheat the remaining oil. Add in the scallions, garlic, and Szechuan paste and stir-fry for 20 seconds. Add in the soy sauce and stir.
    4. Put the string beans back into the skillet. Add in the wine and sugar and stir till well mixed, about 1 minute. Remove from the skillet and serve.
    5. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
