1 tablespoon white miso paste

08 -
3 minced garlic cloves
# Instructions:
01 -
Combine sesame oil, soy sauce, miso, and syrup in a small bowl and stir until smooth.
02 -
Slice off the ends of green beans. Long ones can be halved at an angle if you want them to look nicer.

Set a large skillet or wok on medium-high. Use one made for high heat, like enameled cast iron. Pour in oil and heat for a moment.

Toss green beans into the pan. Stir to coat them in oil, then arrange them flat. Let them cook for 3-5 minutes, flipping them about every 45 seconds, until they're darkened in spots and tender when poked.
05 -
Drop garlic into the pan and keep stirring for half a minute, making sure it doesn't burn.
06 -
Pour the sauce onto the beans, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and mix well. Pull off the heat and serve right away.

Choose tamari or a certified gluten-free miso for those avoiding gluten.

Try liquid or coconut aminos if you're skipping soy.
