Sunnys Easy Grilled Green Beans With A Quick Chutney Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice bath. Blanch the green beans briefly in the boiling water, then transfer to the ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
• In a large pan on medium-high heat, add the butter, garlic and lemon juice. When the butter is melted and the garlic is fragrant, add the green beans and toss until just heated through. Taste a green bean and season with salt and pepper if needed. Remove to a serving plate and wipe the pan clean. Add the almonds and lemon zest and quickly toast a minute or two. Sprinkle the toasted almonds and zest over the green beans and serve.

Steps:

• Combine green beans, olive oil, garlic, and salt in a bowl; toss to coat. Allow green beans to marinate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Arrange green beans on a grill pan.
• Place grill pan on preheated grill; cook and stir green beans until lightly charred, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Trim the ends of the beans and gently pull away any stringy bits on the sides. Cut diagonally into ½cm pieces. Bring a large pan of water to the boil and cook the beans for around 3 mins to soften slightly. Drain and plunge into a bowl of iced water, leave to cool for 5 mins, then drain and set aside.
• Put the pan back on the hob and cook the onions in 350ml of the vinegar over a medium-low heat for 15 mins to soften, stirring occasionally. Add the sugar and 250ml of the remaining vinegar and cook for 2 mins more.
• Combine the turmeric, mustard seeds and powder and nigella seeds with the cornflour, a good pinch of salt and the remaining 100ml vinegar. Mix well, then tip into the onion mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 3 mins to thicken, then add the beans. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and simmer for 30 mins, stirring regularly until the beans are tender but have a slight bite and the chutney has thickened slightly. Remove from the heat and decant into sterilised jars. Will keep sealed in a cool, dry place for up to three months. Once open, keep in the fridge for up to two weeks.
