1 lb of Green Beans (with ends cut off and sliced into 2" diagonal slices)
1 Tablespoon of Hoisen Sauce (purchased in the Asian section of the grocery market)
2 Tablespoon of Soy Sauce
2 Tablespoon of Toasted Sesame Oil
2 Tablespoon of Rice Vinegar
3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
2 Tablespoons Onion coarsely chopped
1 Tablespoon Ginger coarsely chopped
1 Tablespoon Sesame Seeds Black (optional) - these are a bit tricky to find and you don't have to have them to make this recipe.
1 Tablespoon Sesame Seeds White (optional) - these are easier to find but if you don't have them on hand don't worry about adding them, no biggy
Bring a 3 quart pot of salted water to boil, turn to a medium heat. Drop green beans in boiling water and set the timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes strain in strainer.
Blend all of the rest of the ingredients except the sesame seeds either in a blender or food processor until smooth and pour over the done green beans. Then sprinkle with the sesame seeds and chow down. These are so yummy!
