Place green beans in saucepan. Add about a half a cup of water, steam for about 15 minutes on medium or until they are almost done.

While they are cooking, in a small sauce pan add soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic. Cook on medium for 5 minutes. Turn off heat until green beans are done.

When green beans are done, drain the water. Add sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Top with sesame seeds.
