Ingredients
-
vegetable oil, as needed
-
2-3
shallots, thinly sliced into rings (85 g)
-
salt, to taste
-
2 tablespoons
olive oil (30 g)
-
1 1/2 pounds
green beans, trimmed (680 g)
-
3
cloves garlic, thinly sliced (15 g)
-
red pepper flakes, to taste
Directions
-
In a small saute pan, heat about 1 inch of oil over medium heat. When it is very hot, add the shallots and fry, tossing occasionally, until evenly golden, about 10-12 minutes.
-
Remove the shallots and drain on absorbent paper towels. Season with salt. Let cool to room temperature.
-
Heat the olive oil in a large wok. Add the green beans and stir-fry until they are tender-crisp, about 6-8 minutes.
-
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and stir-fry until the garlic is fragrant, 1-2 minutes more. Season with salt and serve with the crispy shallots.
I always have three kinds of hot sauce in my purse. I have a soft spot for making people their favorite dessert, especially if it's wrapped in a pastry crust. My newest cookbook, Savory Baking, came out in Fall of 2022 - is full of recipes to translate a love of baking into recipes for breakfast, dinner, and everything in between!
