Ingredients

Garlic Edamame

3 cups edamame in shell , frozen (330 g)
3 cloves garlic , minced or crushed (10 g)
3 tablespoons green onion , thinly sliced (30 g)
1 tablespoon ginger , grated or finely minced (15g)
2 tablespoons sesame oil

Spicy Sauce

2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari)
½ tablespoon maple syrup (or another liquid sweetener)
2 teaspoons sriracha *
1 teaspoon corn starch

Garnish (Optional)

sesame seeds

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Ingredients

Peel and finely mince the garlic.
3 cloves garlic
Thinly slice or finely chop your green onion. For a mild flavor, only use the green tops.
3 tablespoons green onion
Grate or finely mince the ginger.
1 tablespoon ginger
Prep some sauce by whisking together soy sauce, maple syrup, sriracha and corn starch in a small bowl or jar. Make sure there are no clumps of corn starch remaining.
2 tablespoons soy sauce, ½ tablespoon maple syrup, 2 teaspoons sriracha, 1 teaspoon corn starch

Step 2: Cook Edamame

Warm your sesame oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, green onion and ginger.
3 cloves garlic, 3 tablespoons green onion, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 1 tablespoon ginger
Fry these vegetables for about 5 minutes, until you’ve cooked the garlic and it no longer smells raw. Stir the mixture while cooking to prevent the garlic from burning; lower the heat if it starts to brown.
Add frozen edamame and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
3 cups edamame in shell
Then, add the prepared sauce and toss to coat the edamame with the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
The dish is ready when your edamame is cooked through (taste one to find out) and the sauce sticks to it.
Serve hot. Optional to garnish with white and/or black sesame seeds.
