I mentioned in a previous post how Nyonya Chicken Stew (Pongteh) was the first real dish that started my culinary learning. Green Beans and Eggs was another recipe I learned around the same time and was easy to prepare. The recipe is simple, with very few ingredients but good enough to pass off as a healthy side dish.
You wouldn’t think that green beans and eggs go together well but the crispy beans and fluffy eggs play off each other nicely. Toss in a little garlic and salt and you’re good to go.

June 25, 2020 at 12:44 PMI am in desperate need of groceries and I Googled green beans and eggs. I came across this recipe and decided to make it since I really don’t have any other options. I am really enjoying this. The texture and flavor are well balanced. Of course I was doubtful because of how simple this recipe is, but I am enjoying every bite.
