Szechuan Green Beans and Soba image

This is my most favouritest noodle dish. I love it just as it is but it makes a great side dish to many meals. To make it a veggie main add some cubed tofu or Quorn in with the green beans. This originally came from "Three bowls" cookbook by Seppo Ed Farrey.

12 ounces soba noodles
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons cooking oil
1 lb green beans
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes, to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pan with water and bring to the boil. Add the soba noodles and cook for 5 minutes Drain the noodles, refresh in cold water and set aside.
  • Heat up a dry wok and add the sesame seeds, gently swirl them until they become golden and aromatic (be careful they burn easily).
  • Remove the seeds and set aside. In the same pan heat the oils over a medium high heat.
  • Trim the ends from the green beans and cut into bite size pieces.
  • Add the beans to the pan and sauté for 3 mins, turn the heat down and cook for a further 2 minutes.
