How to Make P F Changs Sauce For Fried Green Beans Appetizer

  1. **Make the Sauce:** Combine 1/2 cup Kewpie mayonnaise, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  2. **Prepare the Green Beans:** Wash and trim 1 pound of fresh green beans. Cut into 3-inch pieces.
  3. **Make the Tempura Batter (optional):** In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup ice water, and a pinch of salt until smooth. The batter should be slightly thick.
  4. **Cook the Green Beans:** If using tempura batter, dip each green bean piece into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Fry in batches in hot oil (350°F) until golden brown and crispy (about 2-3 minutes). Alternatively, for a healthier option, roast the battered green beans in a preheated oven at 400°F for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. **Combine and Serve:** Once the green beans are cooked, gently toss them in the prepared sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy!
  6. **Optional additions**: Consider adding other vegetables such as asparagus or carrots following steps 3-5. Toasted sesame seeds make a great garnish.
