Pa-O Long Beans

Finding long beans is worth the effort — the high heat of the wok is just too much for green beans, which aren't as hearty.

Cooks' notes:

· Beans can be boiled, drained, and patted dry 3 hours ahead. · If you don't have a wok, beans can be cooked in a 12-inch heavy skillet. (They will lack smoky flavor.)
