Sautéed Green Beans with Basil // The Sound of Cooking Video // How to Make Asian Green Beans

This quick, Japanese cuisine inspired green bean recipe works with all string beans, including the purple waxed beans used in the cooking video. The aroma of fresh basil and garlic make this dish irresistible. Cooking sake is used to deglaze the pan and mirin, another rice wine that is lower in alcohol content and higher in sugar content, adds a sweetness that’s a perfect match with low sodium soy sauce. Enjoy it while it’s hot or as leftovers! Recipe below. 🌱Turn the volume on to hear the sounds of cooking.

Heat a medium pan on medium high heat. Once pan is hot, add grapeseed oil followed by trimmed green beans. Saute by moving green beans in pan occasionally to allow even cooking. 2. When green beans are slightly cooked (about 2 minutes), add sliced garlic and stir. Wait 30 seconds for garlic to become aromatic and add cooking sake to deglaze the pan. 3. Add fresh basil leaves, mirin and stir. 4. Mix in low sodium soy sauce, remove from heat immediately and transfer to a serving bowl. NOTES: You can substitute mirin by using 3 teaspoons of cooking sake instead or substituting with a dry white wine and adding ½ teaspoon of granulated cane sugar with the low sodium soy sauce at the end. Make sure to use low sodium soy sauce instead of regular so the flavor of the green beans aren’t overpowered.
