Green Beans With Lime And Mint Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring 6 cups water and 1 tablespoon salt to a boil over high heat. Add butter beans and cook until tender, 9-12 minutes, depending on the size of the beans. Drain in a colander; shake colander several times to shed as much water as possible.

Some beans will be more cooked than others - that's O.K. Season with salt and place beans in a bowl.

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.
