Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green in color and have no blemishes. Avoid beans that are limp or wilted.
  • Trim the green beans before cooking. Cut off the ends of the beans and remove any strings. This will help the beans cook evenly.
  • Blanch the green beans before stir-frying. This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a pot of water to a boil and add the beans. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the beans are bright green. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a hot wok or skillet to stir-fry the beans. This will help them cook quickly and evenly. Add a little oil to the wok or skillet and heat over high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the beans and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
  • Add your favorite sauce or seasonings to the green beans. There are many different sauces and seasonings that you can use to flavor your green beans. Some popular options include soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic sauce, and black pepper.

Walnut Green Beans a la Joyce is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The green beans are tender-crisp, the walnuts add a nutty flavor, and the sauce is flavorful and addictive. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
