We love Asian food, but I am sorry to say this recipe did not work at all well for us. Asian foods are typically lightly-sauced, the amt of the sour cream sauce was excessive for the amt of green beans & IMHO the sour cream was the culprit of our disfavor. Asian foods very rarely (if at all) use dairy products as most Asians find the mere smell of them unpleasant. I could overlook the much smaller amt of cream cheese as a required ingredient, but felt strongly that an appropriate amt of coconut milk (not a dairy product) vs the sour cream would have brought you closer to your "Asian flair" goal w/o sacrificing the creamy texture you intended for the sauce. This was a good effort & I feel there's a good recipe in this mix if it's re-worked w/that chg. It would lean more toward the Thai or Indian cuisine, but would be more successful & more Asian-authentic. Thx for sharing your recipe w/us & good luck in the contest.
