Steps

1

To a wok add the oil of your choice and heat on medium-high heat. I love smell sesame oil so that is my preference.
2

Add the green beans and stir fry them for 3-5 minutes or until they start to shrivel up a bit.
3

Add in the garlic (if you like garlic than add lots rather than 1 tablespoon), green onions, chili-garlic paste and stir to combine.
4

Cook the garlic mixture for 30 seconds to a minute then add in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, water and chili flakes.
5

Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until most of the liquids are completely cooked off.
6

Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
