  3. 3
    Heat the wok over high heat until very hot, then add the oil.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveWok
    💡A very hot wok and a few vegetables at a time: crowded vegetables release water and steam instead of charring, and lose their crunch.
  4. 4
    Add the green beans and stir-fry 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly.
    Stove
  5. 5
    Add the garlic and stir-fry 30 seconds, until fragrant.
    Stove
    💡The garlic and ginger go in last: in the heat of the wok they burn within seconds.
  6. 6
    Add the gluten-free soy sauce, sugar and black pepper and stir until everything is evenly coated.
  7. 7
    Add the sesame oil and stir.
  8. 8
    Drizzle the lemon juice over the top. Serve immediately, sprinkled with Black sesame.
