1 (16 ounce) package frozen cut green beans
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/8 teaspoon salt to taste
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
DIRECTIONS
Place the green beans into a large pot, and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt to taste, and put the lid on the pot. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until beans are cooked to your desired doneness. Syrians like it cooked until the green beans are turning brownish in color. The idea is not to saute them, but to let them steam in the moisture released by the ice crystals.
Add cilantro and garlic to the beans, and continue to cook just until the cilantro has started to wilt. Eat as a main course by scooping up with warm pita bread or serve as a side dish.

Try this recipe: Chicken wings with green onions and oyster sauce.

Get a 2 quart pot. Heat up about 3 tablespoons of oil. In Medium heat, brown the chicken wings and set aside. (Chicken wings need not be completely browned.) Chop a bunch and a half of green onions. Saute chopped green onions in the same pot as chicken wings. Take care to scrape the rue at the bottom of the pot. Measure 1/2 cup of oyster sauce and mix it with 1/2 cup of water. Return chicken wings to pot. Add oyster sauce mixture.
Carefully cover the wings with the green onion and oyster sauce mixture. Simmer until sauce thickens. Serve on a bed of white rice. Delicious!

4 Japanese eggplants, unpeeled, cut on diagonal into 1/3-inch-thick slices
8 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed
2 bunches green onions, trimmed
1/4 cup Asian sesame oil

1 6-ounce package dried chuka soba (Japanese-style) noodles
1 8-ounce package sugar snap peas, trimmed

7 tablespoons hoisin sauce
3 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
4 teaspoons finely grated lime peel
1 1/2 tablespoons minced peeled fresh ginger




Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Combine first 3 ingredients; add Asian sesame oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill vegetables until tender, turning often, about 7 minutes for eggplant and mushrooms and 5 minutes for green onions. Transfer mushrooms and onions to cutting board; cool slightly. Slice mushrooms and onions.

Meanwhile, cook noodles in large pot of boiling salted water until almost tender but still firm to bite, about 3 minutes. Add sugar snap peas to noodles; cook 1 minute longer. Drain well. Transfer noodle mixture to large serving bowl. Add grilled vegetables.

Whisk last 4 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Toss noodle salad with dressing; season with salt and pepper.

Test Kitchen Tip: The cooking time of Japanese-style chuka soba noodles varies by a minute or two depending on the brand of noodle. Test them after three minutes to avoid overcooking.

Makes 4 servings.
