Green and yellow beans with peppers and garlic

I use string beans for this recipe, a mixture of yellow and green. The sesame oil adds an interesting flavour to the dish.

Ingredients

1/2 lb green beans

1/2 lb yellow beans

2 tsp olive oil

1 small red and one small yellow pepper (seeded and julienned)

1/2 tsp chili pepper flakes

2 cloves garlic, crushed and chopped

1 tsp sesame oil

salt and pepper to taste.

Method

Boil the bean until tender but crisp, about 3 mins

Drain, plunge in iced water to stop the cooking then drain again

Heat olive oil over a medium heat( I use a wok here )

Add the peppers and cook for about 2 mins

Add the beans and cook for a couple more minutes

Add the chili and garlic, and saute until cooked.

Drizzle with the sesame oil and season.
