I discovered this dish at my Japanese mother-in-law's house during a family holiday buffet. She had many friends who brought wonderful Japanese dishes, and this was and has remained one of my favorites. It's light and fresh any time of the year.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 ½ teaspoons sesame oil

Directions

Warm a large skillet or wok over medium heat. When the skillet is hot, pour in canola and sesame oils, then place whole green beans into the skillet. Stir the beans to coat with oil.

Transfer to a serving platter, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
