Stir Fried Long Beans 乾煸長豆角

A delicious dish doesn't have be difficult to make. This simple dish gives so much depth in flavor. If you can't find long beans in your area, green beans are a perfect substitute. This Sichuan style recipe was one of my favorite dishes as a child. My mother used to pack this dish over rice in my lunch box. The sauce would soak into the rice creating a perfect meal that was envied by many of my classmates.
