For enhanced flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a clove of minced garlic to the oil as it heats. Toasting your own sesame seeds will yield the best flavor. Simply toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Blanching the green beans for 2 minutes before stir-frying can help maintain their vibrant green color.
