Dry-Fried Long Beans

Skinny, deep green long beans—also known as snake beans, yard-long beans and asparagus beans—will delight kids and impress adults. Look for them at farmers’ markets and Asian groceries, where they are often sold tied in bundles. Cut them into manageable lengths and cook them in a searing-hot wok until the skins wrinkle and brown in spots before adding any seasonings.
