A few tips:
- Use fresh, juicy and crunchy beans. You want them to turn out warm but still crispy and juicy.
- Make sure the frying pan is really warm before you add the sliced garlic to it.
- Have pan at medium/high heat to make sure you get a nice golden brown surface and that the beans get warm, bust still not cooked through and soft.
- Do not fry the beans for too long so they turn all soft.
