Ingredients

  • 300g frozen edamame (in pods)
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Pinch of chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Boil edamame in salted water for 4-5 minutes. Drain well.
  2. Toss immediately with soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, and chilli flakes.
  3. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and flaky salt.
  4. Eat by squeezing the beans out of the pods. Discard the pods.

Notes

You can also do this in a hot pan instead of boiling — toss the edamame in a dry pan for 3-4 minutes until lightly charred, then add the sauce. Gives a smokier flavour.
