Garlic Green Beans Recipe
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 lb Green beans, ends trimmed
- 2 x Cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 Tbsp. Red-wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. Walnut or possibly extra virgin olive oil
- 1/8 tsp Salt (optional)
- 1/8 tsp Freshly grnd black pepper
Directions
- I tried this recipe from Jane Brody's "Good Food Gourmet" for Thanksgiving last year and my family really loved it! Steam beans for 5 to 7 min or possibly till tender crisp. Rinse briefly under cool water to preserve color, but don't chill. Cover and keep hot. In a large bowl, combine garlic and remaining ingredients. Add in hot green beans and toss till well coated. If you like, you can reheat in microwave before serving. If you do not want such a strong flavor of garlic, simmer the unpeeled cloves of garlic in a c. of water for 5 min before peeling and mincing. I do not think the original recipe is too strong though.
