Chinese White
Posted in Antiques on 11/17/2010 06:17 pm by adminHow unhealthy is sauteed string beans with white rice from your local chinese restaurant?
Tomorrow im having sauteed string beans with white rice for lunch/dinner, and I was wondering how unhealthy or fattening it is? Im dead set on eating that 2mro since I havent had chinese in a few weeks and I really love those string beans. Its not THAT bad, is it?
The fat content or unhealthiness of sauteed string beans totally depends on how much oil that particular restaurant uses to cook the beans, and what kind of sauce they add on for flavoring. Sauteed string beans are normally stir-fried in a wok, which require a little bit of oil so the beans don't stick. Some sauces are more fattier than others (especially the ones with oil). If you're really worried, ask your restaurant to cook it with minimal oil. It shouldn't be too much of a problem for them to do that.
