Chili-Sesame dressed Soy Beans


___________

I wanted to share this super tasty, super fast side dish with you guys. I'm not sure I can really call it a recipe as there is no real cooking involved:

In boiling water cook 200g of frozen soy beans for around 4 minutes (fully defrosted, slightly cooked but you want them to be firm!). Whilst they're bubbling away, finely chop 1 clove of garlic and mix in a cup with 3 tablespoons of your favourite soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Stir in a teaspoon of brown sugar until dissolved. Add in chilli flakes to taste. Back to the, now cooked, soy beans, spoon them into cold water so they stop cooking. Stir into your dressing. Ta-Da!!

Have as a healthy snack alternative, or as a side dish to any oriental meal. Happy Friday!
