1 Prepare the ingredients

Wash and dry the green beans; cut off and discard any stem ends. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. 

2 Cook the green beans & serve your dish

In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the green beans; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned and slightly softened. Add 1/4 cup of water (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the water has cooked off. Add the chopped garlic, sesame oil, and half the togarashi (you will have extra). Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until thoroughly combined and the green beans are softened. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Enjoy!
