Stir-Fried Garlic Green Beans image

The green beans should remain crunchy in this dish, which is adapted from Grace Young's recipe in "Stir-Fry to the Sky's Edge."

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound green beans, trimmed
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon soy sauce, low-sodium if desired
1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon peanut oil or canola oil

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, season with salt and add the green beans. Boil 1 minute, drain and rinse with cold water, then place on a kitchen towel to dry thoroughly. (If vegetables aren't dry when you add them to the hot wok or pan, they will splutter and braise instead of stir-frying.) Place within reach of your wok or pan.
  • Combine the soy sauce and wine or sherry in a small bowl or measuring cup and place within reach of your wok or pan. Place the garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes in another small container near the burner.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan. Add the garlic and ginger, stir-frying for no more than 10 seconds, and then add the green beans. Toss together, then add the soy sauce and sherry and stir-fry for one to two minutes, until the beans are crisp-tender. Remove from the heat and serve.

Fried Green Beans & Pepper: Southern Comfort Food

Indulge in the delectable Southern comfort food experience with this appetizing combination of green peppers, green tomatoes, and green onions, coated in a zesty batter and pan-friend till golden brown.

Here are some tips to elevate this culinary masterpiece:

Cooking Instructions

  • Begin by selecting vibrant and fresh green tomatoes and green peppers. Opt for medium-size tomatoes and small-size peppers to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Slice the tomatoes and peppers into small, uniform pieces. This will enhance the even distribution of batter and promote consistent cooking.
  • To create a delectable batter, whisk together buttermilk, eggs, and an array of seasonings, including paprika, salt, and black and red peppers. The buttermilk imparts a tangy and rich taste, while the seasonings provide a vibrant and flavorful kick.
  • Coat the green tomatoes and peppers in the batter, making sure to coat them evenly. This step ensures that the batter adheres perfectly to the tomatoes and peppers, resulting in a crispy and golden-browed treat.
  • In a large skillet, heat a combination of oil and butter, creating a hot and sizzling cooking surface. The combination of butter and oil prevents the mixture from sticking while infusing it with a rich and buttery aroma.
  • Carefully place the batter-coated green tomatoes and peppers into the hot oil mixture. Cook them in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Overcrowding can result in uneven cooking and prevent the formation of a golden crust.
  • Fry the green tomatoes and peppers until they attain a beautiful golden-browed color on the outside. The cooking process ensures a crisp and delectable texture while preserving the natural flavors of the tomato and peppers.
  • After frying, remove the green tomatoes and peppers from the skillet and transfer them to a paper towel-line plate to absorb any additional grease. This step helps to prevent a greasy texture while allowing the flavors to harmonize further.
  • Garnish the delectable treat with sliced green onions before serving, adding a vibrant pop of color and a delightful layer of crisp and aromatic freshness.

Conclusion

Captivating taste buds with every delectable morsel, this Southern comfort food classic is sure to become a favorite among all who encounter it. With the perfect balance of tangy, sweet, and spicy flavors, these green tomatoes and peppers, enveloped in a golden-browed batter, will leave a lingering taste of culinary bliss.
