How to Make Crispy Yardlong Beans with Toasted Sesame

1. Dry-Roast Sesame Seeds

Begin by dry-roasting the sesame seeds. Heat a wok over medium heat and add the sesame seeds. Stir them continuously for about 1.5 to 2 minutes until they turn a light brown color and you can smell their nutty aroma. Once done, set them aside.

2. Heat Scallion Oil and Salt

Next, heat the same wok over medium-high heat for about 30 seconds. Add in the scallion oil and salt, swirling to coat the bottom and sides of the wok. You'll know it's ready when you see a wisp of white smoke rising from the oil.

3. Cook Shallots

Add the minced shallots to the wok and stir them for about 2 minutes until their aroma fills your kitchen. They should become soft and slightly golden.

4. Stir-Fry Long Beans

Add the long beans to the wok. Stir-fry them continuously for about 4 to 5 minutes. The beans will turn a bright green color. If necessary, sprinkle a little water to create steam.

5. Serve

Finally, transfer the cooked beans to a heated dish and sprinkle the roasted sesame seeds over the top. Serve immediately.
