    The sauce was not good at all. The dish looked and smelled so great, buy when I took a bite I had to spit it out.

    These didn't last. I've prepared them at least 3 times--either according to recipe or slightly differently because I was missing a few ingredients--still great tasting.

    Delicious! We use this sauce on zucchini as well and it's great! It's one of those flavors that you can't stop eating :

    This was an okay dish, but I really think with a few modifications to fit my palet, I would like it better. I like a light coating of sauce on my beans. I think the hoison and sesame oil overpowered the dish and that's what most of all turned it off for me. So next time I would definitely decrease those in half, if not more. It also was lacking sweetness for me. So next time I would add a touch of brown sugar in it. I also instead of deep frying my beans, sauteed them in a wok til tender but crisp and just added all the rest of the ingredients in. I will try again with my modifications to hopefully be better for our tastes.

    Awesome recipe, but made some slight modifications. Although it is traditional to flash fry the beans, I stir fried them in a couple tablespoons of oil until they were still crisp on the exterior but more tender inside. I also cut down a little bit on the rice wine vinegar. That was a little too much for me. I seared some sea scallops and added them last minutes with the beans to the sauce and served over steamed white rice. Fantastic!

    very good sauce. nice & spicy. usually give all guy's recipes 5 stars, but i just couldn't this time. think next time i will blanch then saute my green beans (i used asparagus too since it looked so good at the farmers market to lesson the oil content. too oily for my families taste. I pared this with ina's asian salmon (used chicken also and bobby flay's noodles, very yummy dinner! and next time when i don't fry the beans it will be a very healthy dinner!

    The ginger and cilantro make these beans incredibly yummy.
