How to Make Chinese Peppered Green Beans
- In a small bowl, crush the Sichuan peppercorns into a coarse powder using the bottom of a glass or jar.
- Stir in the chopped cilantro.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the green beans, minced garlic, brown sugar, chili pepper, crushed peppercorns, and cilantro to the wok.
- Stir-fry for 45 seconds until the beans are slightly softened.
- Pour in 1-2 tablespoons of water (depending on the size and desired tenderness of the beans), cover, and steam for 1-2 minutes for smaller beans and 7-9 minutes for larger beans, until tender-crisp.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy the delicious numbing spice!
