In a large skillet over medium-high heat, drizzle a teaspoon of oil and cook green beans for a minute. Add two tablespoons water and cover with a lid to steam for a minute more. Transfer green beans to a plate and discard any excess water. Return skillet to high heat and add remaining oil. When it is almost smoking, add beef and stir-fry until almost cooked through, for about two to three minutes. Reduce to medium heat and add garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar and sugar; stir quickly to coat the beef. Add back green beans then top with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
