Spicy Green Beans
I discovered this spicy sauce recently and since then it’s one of my favorites. The fresh coriander and spring onion balance the spiciness of the green beans. If you are not sure about the spiciness, just start with half of the sambal first. Although I have to say: it really tastes best with all of it!
