I bought a package of haricot verts to make with caramelized shallots and sliced almonds, but also used them to make a wonderful Szechuan stir-fry. Bring water to a rapid boil then add green beans and cook for 5-6 minutes. Set aside. Heat oil in a wok and saute finely chopped garlic and ginger, and diced onions. Add green beans and stir-fry for several minutes. Add Shaoxing wine, oyster sauce, finely chopped Thai chilis, a dash of Siracha, sugar and a few drops of sesame oil and continue to stir-fry. Toss all ingredients in the wok until they're well coated, then add a slurry mixture of corn starch and water. I used two teensy Thai chilis and a dash of Siracha and they were very spicy. Adjust this to your taste. A red chili oil can be substituted.
