Steps:
- Prepare the scallion garnish: Finely slice the scallions on an angle and drop them into a large bowl with ice and water - this will make the scallion threads curl up nicely so they look like ribbons. Set aside.
- Wash green beans under cold running water. Cut off the root ends and discard. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the beans and blanch until bright green, about 2 minutes. Shock in ice water then drain in a colander.
- Heat a large wok over high heat. Add the peanut oil, then add the shallots, garlic, ginger and chile. Stir the mixture around so it fries in the oil and gets fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the green beans and toss a couple of times to coat everything evenly. Saute for a couple of minutes so the beans get a little caramelization. Add the soy sauce and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes; the beans should still be nice and crisp. Transfer to a large platter and garnish with drained scallion curls.

FRENCH GREEN BEANS SAUTéED WITH MUSHROOMS AND ALMONDS
I created this Asian-inspired dish last night. It is permissible for phase one of the South Beach Diet and we LOVED it. I used frozen french beans from Trader Joe's, but fresh beans would be wonderful! Amounts are highly approximated; I didn't measure when making this, but this is pretty similar to what I did. (If using fresh beans, you'd probably want to blanch them in boiling water and then plunge in ice water, and *then* add to the pan.)

Steps:
- Wash and cut end of green beans. Bring to boil a pot of water and salt it as this is the only time to really flavor the green beans -- Boil them for about 8-10 minutes then drain water.
- In a separate pan -- put olive oil and butter -- medium heat as not to burn. Pour green beans, shallot- sliced thinly, pre-sliced mushrooms and garlic and sautee for about 5 minutes! You can add more garlic if you want!
- Make sure green beans are still firm.not to mushy. Add some more seasonings to taste after you are finishing the sautee as this will bring out the water from the mushrooms and the sweetness of the shallot !
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large nonstick pan over medium heat sauté the garlic in the olive oil for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add mushrooms, oregano, salt, salt and pepper, and sauté until the mushrooms begin to release moisture, about 2 minutes.
- Add the vegetable broth and turn the heat up a bit, bringing to a low boil. Simmer for about a minute.
- Add the white wine and green beans; cover and simmer for about 2 minutes. Uncover and cook for about 3 more minutes or until desired tenderness is reached.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, young green beans. Avoid beans that are limp, bruised, or have brown spots.
- Trim the beans before cooking. Remove the tough ends of the beans and any strings that run along the sides.
- Blanch the beans before sautéing. This will help them retain their bright green color and crisp texture.
- Use a large skillet or wok to sauté the beans. This will allow them to cook evenly.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat before adding the beans. This will help them sear and develop a nice color.
- Stir the beans frequently while cooking. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Season the beans with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings. Be careful not to overseason the beans, as they can easily become too salty.
- Serve the beans immediately. They are best enjoyed hot out of the pan.

Sautéed green beans are a quick, easy, and delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. By following these tips, you can make sure your sautéed green beans turn out perfectly every time.
