I used yard / long beans, but you can use string / french / green beans. Your can also use frozen beans. I have also added pine nuts and melon seeds for protein, but any nut will do. This recipe serves 4.
Ingredients
1 lb yard-long beans
1 tablespoon oil
1 tbsp pine nuts
1 tbspn melon seeds
3 cloves garlic; minced
2 inch ginger; grated
2 chllies; minced
1 table spoon soya sauce
4 Bricks of Noodles / or enough fo 4 people
1 tspn sesame oil
salt to taste
Method
Start: Heat some water in a kettle
5.00 minutes: Top and tail the beans and cut the beans into 2-3 inch pieces, (I processed six at a time).
5.00 minutes: Steam beans using the boiled water, for five minutes or microwave according to instructions/
Meanwhile Heat the oil in a large pan or wok and add the nuts, garlic, ginger and chilli, cook for about 2-3 minutes. Add the soya sauce.
Add the steamed beans mix and turn down the heat.
2 minutes: Boil the noodles in salted e hot water (use the same water), I used quick cook noodles, so 2 minutes was enough.
2 miniutes: Add the sesame oil to the beans, and mix the drained noodles.
Serve and Enjoy
Total time 15 minutes

Thats one quick recipe Saju. I love those long green beans. We call it althande and I never tried it with fried rice or noodles. We always use it in sambar and sabzi. Thanks for the jhatphat recipe.
That is really super fast!!!! Love the combination of water melon seeds and pine nuts...sprouts are looking great and so are the snaps, thanks for sharing!
I love these beans. In Guyana it is called bora. I like it cooked with shrimp or sauteed with thinly sliced potatoes.
Your looks so crisp and flavourful.

Raaga, I lobia and karamani are black eye beans. I believe these beans are related to black eye peas. They are also know as:
Asparagus bean, Snake bean, Chinese long bean, Bodi bean, Green asparagus bean, Long horn bean, Yard long bean, Yard-long cowpea, Long podded cowpea, Long podded kidney bean, Green podded cow pea.
Beans,noodles & nuts! That is so creative of u!
