Harumi's Green Beans with Sesame Seed


The Japanese love garnishing things with ground toasted sesame seeds. You can buy packets of the stuff at any Japanese market. This time, it's green beans that are coated in the stuff. A tiny bit of sugar, some mirin and soy sauce sweetens the dish up and magically turns green beans into something addictive!

This sounds great with the greens! And, if they're lucky, that's even better. The orange and sesame dressing is lovely too.
