Easy 10 minutes stir fry green beans with black bean sauce and a kick of spice! Incredibly tasty and healthy!
The peak season for green beans (string beans) are between May to October in the U.S. So now is a good time to head to your local farmers market (or grocery store) to get these fresh green beans. Although many fruits and vegetables are available year-round, they taste the best and are cheapest during their peak seasons.
When buying green beans, try to look for those sold loose rather than in bags so you can pick the good ones. They should be crisp, tender and bright green, without blemishes or signs of wilting. Choose the slim tender ones, not the thick yellowish ones that can be pretty tough and stringy.
These stir fry crisp,tender green beans are best served with hot steam rice.
Enjoy!
