Slicing the garlic instead of pressing it is crucial for achieving the right flavor and texture. Sliced garlic browns beautifully and imparts a more delicate flavor to the dish. Don't overcook the green beans! They should retain a slight crispness for the best texture. Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar and soy sauce to suit your taste preferences. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the wok along with the garlic.
