Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb / 500g green beans (, trimmed)
  • 1 tomato (, diced)
  • 1/4 red onion (, finely diced)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice ((or white wine vinegar))
  • 3 - 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil ((adjust to taste))
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove
  • Salt and pepper
  • Finely chopped parsley ((optional))

Instruction

  • Combine the Dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well. Set aside - or refrigerate up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature before using.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the beans, bring it back up to a boil and boil beans for 60 seconds - no more!
  • Drain and plunge in ice cold water (or run under cold tap water) to stop them from cooking.
  • If making ahead, leave in the colander to dry before transferring to the fridge.
  • To serve, pile the beans on a plate, top with tomato and red onion, drizzled over dressing. Sprinkle with parsley if using.
