Ginger Garlic Glazed Green Beans

Yup - it's green beans again....you're fine :)  These would be really good with Thai or Chinese food...you could even steal the sauce idea and stir fry a bunch of different veggies too.  Super good and really easy!!
Serves 4-6 Mad Hungry

Ingredients:
2 teaspoons peanut of veggie oil
1/2 inch fresh ginger, peeled and grated
3 garlic cloves, half sliced and half minced
1lb green beans, rinsed and stemmed, with water still clinging to them
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Heat a large saute pan over medium heat.  Add the oil, ginger, and minced garlic and saute for 30 seconds.  Raise the heat to medium-high, add the beans and sliced garlic, and stir fry for 2 minutes.

Add 1/4 cup water to the pan.  Cook for another 4 minutes, partially covered.  With 1 minute left, add the soy sauce and sesame oil and swirl around he pan to form a glazy sauce.
