Green Beans With Chives Recipes

Steps:

• Steam green beans, covered, 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.
• Remove from steamer; toss with remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Cook green beans in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Transfer beans to large bowl. Toss with oil and chives. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Cook beans according to directions.
• Usually frozen beans are boiled for 2-4 minutes and then drained.
• After draining, immediately plunge beans into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking and drain.
• In a large skillet heat olive oil over medium high heat until hot and sauté persimmons until lightly browned and softened, about 4 minutes.
• Add a pinch of sugar to help sweeten the persimmons.
• Add beans and 1/4 cup chives and sauté, stirring gently, until hot.
• Transfer mixture to a platter and sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup chives on top.

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of well-salted water to a boil. Add beans and cook for 2 minutes, until firm-tender. Drain and rinse beans with cool water, then blot with a kitchen towel. Set aside.
• Make the vinaigrette: Put garlic, shallot and vinegar in a small bowl. Add a good pinch of salt and a smaller pinch of pepper; let macerate for 5 to 10 minutes. Add mustard and whisk to dissolve, then whisk in olive oil.
• Assemble the salad: Put cooked beans in a serving bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper. Add olives and half the vinaigrette. Toss well, then taste and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle salad with dill and chives and serve.

Steps:

• In a kettle of boiling salted water cook beans until just tender, 2 to 4 minutes, and drain. Plunge beans into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking and drain. Beans may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• In a large heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté persimmons until lightly browned and softened, about 4 minutes. Add beans and 1/4 cup chives and sauté, stirring gently, until hot.
• Transfer mixture to a platter and sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup chives on top.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the mustard and sugar, then stir in the vinegar and gradually whisk in the vegetable oil and olive oil until they are completely mixed. Stir in the chives.
• Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 8-10 mins until just undercooked, then throw in the beans and continue to cook for 4-5 mins until the beans and potatoes are done. Drain the vegetables and toss with most of the dressing.
• Heat a dash of olive oil in a large non-stick stick frying pan until very hot and 'flash fry' the salmon for a moment until it just changes colour. Pile the beans and potatoes onto plates, lay the salmon on top, then drizzle with a little of the leftover dressing.
