Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
300g french green beans, topped and tailed
125 ml extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp red wine or sherry vinegar
1 tsp dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste
1-2 deseeded and finely chopped fresh chillies
Instructions
Steam or boil the beans for about 4-5 minutes (until tender). Drain and immediately plunge into a bowl of cold water to refresh the beans. To make the dressing whisk the oil, vinegar and mustard together. Add salt and pepper to taste and the fresh chillies. Mix the dressing with the beans once cooled and drained. Ideal as an accompaniment to duck or tuna steaks or if vegetarian some grilled halloumi cheese.With this we love: "Il Contadino", Floriano Mognon
A pretty, slightly spiced nose of cloves and sawn wood or smoke, this has a soft, quite light taste with easy tannins. If you close your eyes it’ll take you somewhere a little different and off the beaten track, warm but not heavy. After a while an almost raisin character builds up. There’s a lot going on here to keep you interested.
