WAY too much oil for us. i was not a fan of this cooking method for green beans. i prefer to steam them first and then flavor them with melted fresh herb butter or olive oil.

not really japanese style...my mom's from japan. I liked them, but they were NOT japanese style. They needed a little more flavor. I think the sesame oil was a little over powering

These were really delicious! I used those frozen "steam-able" green beans, thawed them out, and then just followed the rest of the recipe. They have a GREAT flavor - and I don't usually like green beans!

My favorite way to eat green beans! I used sesame oil, added a clove of garlic and threw them in a pan on the grill. YUM!

Very good, just like another reviewer I would stick to regular soy sauce not the low-sodium one. It was a little bland without the salt.

Not my favourite way of serving green beans. Some were crispy and some were overcooked. Maybe that was my fault for not paying enough attention to them. The problem that was the fault of the recipe was that they were too oily and the flavours of the sesame oil and soy sauce were too strong, in my opinion.

This recipe is a keeper. It is a simple way to add flavor to green beans. My husband who usually hates green beans had two servings.

These are soooo good. I used sesame oil and hot oil together instead of canola oil. I have used this recipe on frozen thin green beans, as well as Prince Edward blend (green bean/wax beans/baby round carrots) with great success. As good as the ones I get in Asian restaurants.

The taste was great, however I skipped ther toatsed sesame. I didn't have any. I added a little bit of sugar in case the soy sauce was too salty. Like many, I thought the green beans were way too oily. Next time i'll cook the green beans with water, once all water is evaporated and green beans are tender, i'll toss it in the sesame oil. I would make this again. I think my vegetable-hating boyfriend liked them.

Not bad. Nothing special though.Kinda bland and a lil to much oil for my taste. I think next time i will eliminate the canola oil and stick to only the sesame oil, add fresh garlic, and maybe a wee bit of brown sugar. 3 stars if made as written.

An excellent recipe and one I'll use often. I will try with less oil, though the liquid that cooks out of the beans makes things seem 'greasier' than they really are. I always thicken with a sprinkle of flour or cornstarch to make the seasons cling to the vegetables rather than sitting in the bottom of the bowl. Nice flavor and easy to make as I've always got at least frozen green beans available at home. Thanks for the recipe!
