Simple Green Bean Salad - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
500 g frozen green beans
2 -3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 - 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt
pepper
Preparation
-
Boil or steam green beans until tender-crisp (hint: use a bit of salt in the water to make the beans their greenest).
Meanwhile, add garlic and oil to medium-sized serving bowl.
Mix.
Once they're cooked, drain the beans and toss them in the olive oil& garlic mixture.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
If you can, let the salad sit for 30 minutes (or more) to let the flavours combine.
Serve at desired temperature.
Note: this salad is also very tasty with some finely chopped onion (preferably sweet) added with the garlic.
You can also use a mix of greeen and yellow beans for additional colour.
