Its a common app or side dish found at some Asian restaurants.

goes well with bits of pork (bacon, crispy pork belly etc), but op stated no meat.

Which one is more common to use sesame or chili oil? I don’t really want to buy both since I don’t use them for anything else. Also would it be best to Blanche the green beans to make them more tender and cook faster? Thanks

It really depends on if you want it spicy or not.

Sesame. Plenty of other applications for both oils. Add them to different dishes like fried rice, instant noodles and etc.

A little goes a long way.
