Sauteed Green Beans
>> Thursday, August 5, 2010
These green beans from the farm share were amazing. I love eating raw green beans, so I had to sample a few before making this recipe, just to make sure they were safe to eat! (wink, wink)
Dan actually made me stop eating them raw because he said there wouldn't be enough for the recipe. Oops!
Here's how to make them -
1. Cut ends off green beans and set aside. Chop 1-2 cloves of fresh garlic (you can mince it, but chopped seems to work better in this recipe) and fresh basil.
2. Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan, and add green beans. While green beans are cooking, toast walnuts in a small dry saucepan (you can also use pine nuts, but I keep forgetting to buy them!). Make sure to watch the walnuts carefully so they don't burn, and stir occasionally.
3. Once green beans are almost ready, add garlic to the saucepan and continue cooking.
4. Combine green beans and garlic with walnuts and basil, and serve! YUM.
