Edamame Beans with Chilli & Salt

Edamame Beans with Chilli & Salt - Serves 2

I’ve had this dish a couple of times now when I’ve visited Wagamama restaurants around London, and was excited to see that the recipe is in the Wagamama Cookbook. It’s hard to believe that you get such an amazing taste from these beans with just the addition of chilli, sesame oil and salt. The way to eat these beans is to ’suck’ the beans out and then discard the outer pod. I’ve posted another Edamame Bean recipe if you like this one which you can try here.

 

Ingredients

• 225g edamame beans
• 1tsp sesame oil
• 1/2 red chilli, deseeded & finely sliced
• 1 tsp salt

Method

Step 1
Steam the edamame beans in a steamer over a pan of boiling water for around 2 minutes. Once cooked drain thoroughly.

Step 2
Heat a frying pan and heat through the oil and chilli and then add the beans and stir fry for 1 minute. Serve sprinkled with salt.
