Recipe By : " From the Farmers' Market " by Richard Sax with Sandra Gluck

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : New Import

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 pound green beans -- ends trimmed

1/2 small red onion -- cut in thin slivers

- (about 1/2 cup)

2 cloves garlic -- smashed and peeled

- (to 3 cloves)

1/2 cup olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

freshly ground black pepper

3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

3 tablespoons lemon juice -- (3-4)

 

1. Bring a large pot of water to a full rolling boil; salt lightly. Add the

green beans a handful at a time, so that the water remains at a boil. Boil,

uncovered, just until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes (the timing can vary,

depending on the size and age of the beans). Drain in a colander under cold

running water until cool; drain well. Transfer the beans to a large mixing bowl.

(Do not chill.)

 

2. Add the onion, garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and dill to the beans; toss

gently to combine ingredients and coat the beans.

 

3. Just before serving, remove the garlic cloves and add the lemon juice,

tossing to coat; correct seasonings. Serve at cool room temperature. Serves 4 to

6.
