1/2 lb green beans stems removed 1/2 c walnuts toasted 1 Tb soy sauce or tamari 1 Tb sesame oil or other cooking oil 1 clove garlic minced
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Toss green beans and walnuts with oil, soy sauce, and garlic.
Roast in oven for 10-15 minutes until cooked through and slightly browned.
To make this a main dish, serve with steamed rice or cauliflower rice.
For very crunchy beans, roast for 10 minutes. For softer green beans, roast for 20 minutes. for something in between, roast for 15 minutes.
Instead of green beans, substitute broccoli, carrots, or cauliflower.
The smoking point of most sesame oils is at least 350 degrees F, so we think it's ok to cook with it in this recipe.
Use a nonstick pan for parchment paper to avoid too much sticky soy sauce baking onto the pan.
