1. Thaw green beans in a colander and pat dry to remove excess water. Clean frisee and cut into bite sized pieces and set aside.
2. In a food processor, add the jalapeno, garlic, ginger and scallions. Process and add the sesame oil to form a paste.
3. Transfer paste to a large bowl and whisk in cream of coconut.
4. Whisk in peanut butter; gradually whisk in water until consistency is a smooth, thick sauce.
