Recreate the famous Din Tai Fung garlic green beans at home in just 15 minutes! These beans are blistered until tender-crisp and tossed in an incredibly savory garlic sauce for a restaurant-quality side dish.

Ingredients:

0.5x

1x

2x

4x

 

•   1 lb green beans (washed, dried, and ends trimmed)
•   2-3 cups vegetable oil
•   15 cloves garlic (minced)
•   1/2 tsp salt
•   1/4 tsp chicken boullion powder

Directions

1. Heat the neutral oil in a wok over high heat until it reaches 350°F-375°F. The oil should cover about 1/2 inch of the bottom of the wok.
2. Working in batches, add the washed, dried, and trimmed green beans and fry for about 30-45 seconds, or until the green beans start to wrinkle on the outside. Remove the green beans with a spider strainer and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the green beans are fried.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the wok over medium-high heat. Then add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
4. Add the fried green beans, salt, and chicken bouillon powder and toss to combine for 1 minute.
5. Transfer the green beans to a serving plate. Enjoy!
