Recipe makes for 6 Servings

2 lbs fresh string beans

10 cloves garlic

3 tbsp butter

oil

salt 

soy sauce

1/4 cup water

Directions:


Break the stems and tail ends off the beans. Wash them in cold water and let them stand in a colander to drain. 

Slice the garlic cloves into thin slivers. Melt the butter in a cast iron pan and sauté the garlic lightly for about 1 minute. Then add oil to cover the pan.

When the garlic releases its fragrance add a sprinkle of salt and the soy sauce, stirring continuously. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Have 1/4 cup cold water ready. Add the string beans, tossing them together with the garlic and oil. Quickly add the water and cover the pan to trap the steam.

Turn the heat down low and simmer for 5-7 minutes.

*The string beans should be hot and tender, but still very green and not over-cooked.
