Butter Braised Root Vegetables And Green Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water; generously salt the water.
• Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook until bright green and just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain and transfer to the ice water to cool completely. Drain again and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet; pat dry.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, season with salt and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the green beans to the pot; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until hot, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and add 1 tablespoon water and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter; stir to coat.

Steps:

• With a sharp knife peel celery root and cut into 1-inch pieces. Diagonally cut carrots into 1-inch-thick pieces. Quarter shallots lengthwise. In a 2-quart heavy saucepan melt butter over moderately low heat. Add celery root, carrots, shallots, salt, and pepper to taste, stirring to coat vegetables with butter, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes. While root vegetables are cooking, trim beans. Stir beans into root vegetables and cook, covered, stirring once or twice, until all vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large straight-sided skillet or a wide, shallow pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add beans, tomatoes, broth, and oregano, stirring to combine; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until beans are very tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Stir in remaining 3 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper; serve.

Steps:

• Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high. Add oil and garlic; cook until fragrant and sizzling, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until they begin to break down, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in beans and cilantro; bring to a simmer, then cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Season to taste and serve, drizzled with more oil and sprinkled with cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• In a large sauté pan or heavy pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the onions and stir occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook, stirring frequently, 2 minutes.
• Add the beans, tomatoes, 1 cup water, sugar, salt and pepper and bring just to a boil. Reduce heat to low, then cover and simmer until the beans are very tender, about 45 minutes.
• Remove from heat, adjust the seasoning to taste and cool to room temperature, uncovered, about 45 minutes. Stir in the mint and serve, with thick yogurt and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over low heat, and add the garlic.
• Cook gently, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant but does not take on any color.
• Add the moist greens, raise the heat to medium-high, and cover the pan. Cook until the greens wilt, about 2 minutes, shaking the pan once or twice.
• Remove the cover; if there's any excess liquid, cook until it evaporates.
• Toss the greens with the lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt. Cook green beans until crisp tender, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beans to ice-water bath. Drain; set aside.
