Charred Green Beans With Harissa And Almonds Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a large high sided skillet with some water, adding enough to be just shy of the rim of the pan by about 1 inch. Place over high heat and bring up to boil; add a big pinch of salt and the green beans. Cook for about 5 minutes, the beans should still be crisp. Drain the beans and then run them under some cold water to stop them from cooking. Reserve the beans while you start the onions.
• Return the skillet you cooked the beans in to the cook top over medium heat. Add the almonds and toast stirring every now and then until golden, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the almonds from the skillet and reserve. Return the skillet to the heat and add the butter and olive oil and heat until the butter has melted. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook stirring frequently until the onions caramelize, 20 to 25 minutes. Add the thyme, and cook for another 5 minutes. Add the cooked cooled green beans and almonds, and stir well to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Add the green beans to a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle over the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until soft and starting to brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Top with the hazelnuts and parsley to serve. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Toss 1 pound green beans on a baking sheet with 6 smashed garlic cloves, 1/4 cup water and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Roast at 450 degrees F until the beans are tender and slightly charred, about 20 minutes. Toss with 2 teaspoons each chopped tarragon and whole-grain mustard, and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Cook green beans 5 minutes in 1-inch boiling water, covered. Drain beans and return pan to heat.
• Add oil and butter pat to the pan. Toss beans in oil and melted butter. Season beans with a little salt and transfer to a serving plate.
• Garnish green beans with toasted slivered or sliced almonds.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine harissa, honey and lime juice. Stir together until combined and season to taste with salt.
• In large cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the grapeseed oil and the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add green beans and cook undisturbed until they began to char in spots, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, tossing frequently, until beans are just cooked through and slightly blistered and browned in spots, about 5 to 6 minutes more. Some beans will be more cooked than others - that's O.K. Season with salt and place beans in a bowl.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil in the skillet. Add tomatoes and cook undisturbed until they also begin to char in spots, about 1 minute. Stir tomatoes frequently until they are just cooked through and some begin to burst, about 2 minutes more. They do not need to be totally cooked through. Season with salt.
• Remove skillet from heat and add green beans. Add harissa mixture and butter and toss until everything is combined and butter is melted. Add in half of the mint and stir again. Spoon into a large bowl and scatter with remaining mint. Garnish with flaky salt, if using.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add salt (a teaspoon or so, or to taste). Fill a large bowl with ice and water. Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook until bright green but still firm, about 2 minutes. Drain and transfer to the ice water. When cool, drain again. Pat dry with paper towels until completely dry.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the almonds and the oil, adding more oil if needed to just cover the almonds. Cook over medium heat until the almonds are golden, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the shallot. It will cook in the residual heat.
• Coat a large skillet with oil. Heat over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add the beans and season with salt. Cook, tossing frequently, until charred dark brown in spots and tender-crisp, about 7 minutes.
• Top with the almond mixture, then the parsley. Grate the zest from a quarter of the lemon directly over the beans, then cut the lemon into wedges for serving. Season with pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Cook green beans in boiling salted water until tender, then drain and cool under running water. Set aside.
• Put olive oil, shallots, garlic cloves and some salt in a frying pan, then cook gently for about 8 mins until soft but not brown. Tip in the beans and a grind of pepper, toss well, then warm through. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and toasted flaked almonds.

Steps:

• Place a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 350°F. Toss green beans, garlic, oil, harissa, cumin seeds, and salt in a shallow 2-qt. baking dish to combine.
• Turn garlic cut side down, then roast vegetables, tossing 2 or 3 times, until golden brown and very tender, 60-70 minutes. Let cool slightly, then add vinegar and toss to coat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. On a baking sheet, toss green beans with oil and harissa until coated; season with salt and pepper. Roast, shaking pan once halfway through, until beans are browned in spots, 20 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds before serving.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer mixture to a small bowl.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add green beans, season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat in the oil. Leave undisturbed over medium heat for 2 minutes to encourage charring, then stir and cook, tossing every 2 minutes, until most of the beans are shriveled, about 6 minutes longer.
• Reduce heat to low and add the shallot mixture and anchovies. Cook, stirring, until well incorporated and anchovies dissolve, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to a serving platter and serve warm or at room temperature.
