I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from this recipe. The green beans were still very good without it.

These green beans were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used too much chili pepper. I'll use less next time.

These green beans were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll drain them more thoroughly next time.

These green beans were a nice change from the usual steamed or roasted green beans I make. I'll definitely be making them again.

These green beans were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I accidentally used red chili peppers instead of green, but they still turned out great! The beans had a beautiful color and a nice, subtle heat.

I omitted the garlic in this recipe because I'm not a fan, but they were still very good. I added a bit of extra salt and pepper to taste.
