Make sure that the beans are quite dry. If necessary, rub them with a dish towel. Heat the oil in a wok over a medium high flame. When smoking hot, put in all the beans and turn the heat to high. Fry the beans, stirring now and then, for 1 to 2 minutes or until the skins just begin to crinkle but the beans are still crisp and bright green. Take out all the beans with a slotted spoon and put them in a colander that is resting in a large bowl. Turn off the heat under the wok. Remove all but four tablespoons oil from the wok. Heat on a medium flame. When hot, put in the garlic and the Thai chile. Stir and fry until the garlic turns a light to medium brown color. Put in the beanas and stir once. Now put in the soy sauce, salt, and sugar. Stir again to mix.
