This might just be the best green bean stir fry we have ever made! The flavors are harmonious and delicious together. I halved the sugar and red pepper flakes (it was still quite spicy!). I also used probably 1/2 tablespoon of oil, which was ample. The two of us ate this all as a side dish (we love our veggies). I could also see this being a wonderful entree with the addition of tofu or ground pork.

I loved this recipe! I didn't have quite enough scallions, but so enjoyed the flavors! I will most assuredly make this again! Thanks!

Simple with huge flavor from the garlic and red pepper flakes. More scallions would be better!

I blanch and freeze cut green beans, and with that head start, this is quick hot meal. I use closer to 1 tablespoon of oil for the stir fry, otherwise it's more like a fry. We like a little more scallions and garlic than called for in the recipe.
