Hot and Heavenly String Beans
3 tbsp olive oil
1 lb fresh string beans, ends trimmed, cut into halves
1 teaspoon ground ginger
4-5 large cloves garlic, minced very finely
1 tsp salt
1-3 tablespoons Tabasco Sauce (to taste)
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add your string
beans and saute until they look very green and their skin looks a
bit blistered, about 5-10 minutes. Dust the ground ginger over the
string beans, stir, and cover the pan to steam them for another
5-10 minutes, or until tender but firm. Add finely minced garlic,
salt, and hot sauce, stirring and raise the heat to medium-high.
Cook briefly, about 2 or 3 minutes, just until hot sauce is absorbed
and garlic is aromatic but no longer seems too pungent. Add toasted
pine nuts and remove from heat.
