Long Beans with Salted Fish

This is another emergency recipe that I've came out with. Like what I've mentioned before, I will buy beans (long-beans, French beans, Snake beans) to keep almost every week for those 'just in case I don't know what to cook' occasion. At such time, I will rummaged throw my fridge for stuff that I can use and these beans always come in very handy as they are so versatile.

You can stir-fry, braised, boil, steam and even fried them! The possibilities are endless if you have the creativity to use them. The other reasons why I like to buy and keep them as they have a slightly longer shelf life as compared to other vegetables if you keep them in the right way.
