When you find it give it to me. I like them too.
Asian?? Do you mean East Asian like Chinese? My (Chinese) friend blanches green beans in salty water and stir fries them in sesame oil with chopped garlic and finely shredded pork. finally she adds a dash of soy sauce, crushed white pepper and msg. My twist on it is to top it with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
