Ingredients for
400 g
green beans
1 UNIT
small clove garlic, grated
1 Tsp.
fresh ginger, grated
5 tbsp.
water, warm
40 g
panko (or breadcrumbs)
1 Whole
shallot, small
2 tbsp.
olive oil
1.5 tbsp.
crispy chili oil

Step 1/4

Trim the ends of the green beans. Cook in boiling salted water for 6–8 minutes until tender-crisp, or steam. Drain and let steam off briefly.

Step 2/4

Stir together tahini, crispy chili oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger until smooth. Stir in warm water until a creamy sauce forms.

Step 3/4

For the topping: Finely dice the shallots. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté shallots until translucent. Add breadcrumbs and sesame seeds and toast until golden and crispy. Remove the pan from the heat.

Step 4/4

Toss the beans with the sauce, plate, and sprinkle generously with the shallot topping. Garnish with spring onions or coriander, if desired.
