We made these last night to go with the Mandarin Beef (which was fantastic), and coconut rice with ginger and Chinese chives. Made for a quick dinner.

Chinese Long Beans with Cracked Black Pepper

ingredients

* 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Add the water, cover and cook over moderately low heat until the water has evaporated and the beans are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the soy sauce and cracked pepper and cook for 1 minute. Transfer to a platter and serve.
