Put the broth in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the beans, cover, and bring to a boil; lower the heat to medium and simmer until the beans are bright green and tender, about 8 minutes. Drain the beans immediately in a colander and rinse under cold water. Set aside to cool.

Mix the beaten egg with milk in a shallow bowl. Put the flour in a second shallow bowl. In a third shallow bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Working with a handful of beans at a time, coat each bean first in flour, then in the egg mixture, and finally in the bread crumb mixture. Set the coated beans on a plate until all are finished.

Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a deep skillet (or in a deep fat fryer) over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry the beans a few at a time, without crowding, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and let cool. Serve with the horseradish-wasabi dip.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe
easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.
The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.
Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.
Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
