Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen edamame beans
  • pink salt
  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • tsp fresh garlic paste or very finely grated garlic
  • ¼ tsp red chili flakes

Instructions
 

  • Fill a saucepan with water and a few pinches of pink salt. Bring it to a boil over high heat on the stovetop.
  • Add the edamame beans in here, allowing them to cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Check an edamame bean with a fork - if it squishes easily but still has some structure to it, it's ready. If it's still partially frozen, given it another minute or two to boil. Make sure not to overcook it!
  • Once the edamame is cooked, add the oil to a skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Add the garlic and red chili flakes, stirring for a minute until the garlic is slightly browned.
  • Add in the edamame, stirring it around for a few minutes until the beans are browning as in the photos.
  • Once ready, remove from heat and taste test. Stir in additional salt and spices if needed.
  • Add the edamame into a small snacking bowl. Enjoy warm!

Notes
