Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

300 g fresh green beans (2 nice handfuls)
2 large carrots
3 teaspoons butter, to taste
1 teaspoon minced garlic
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Trim green beans and cut carrot into sticks that are similar in size to the green beans.
  • Put the carrots in a microwave safe dish and pour about 1/2 a cup of boiling water over them. Loosely cover dish (so a bit of steam can escape). I use a microwave steamer.
  • Microwave on high about 3 minutes, until carrots are starting to soften but not yet done.
  • Add beans to carrots in dish or steamer. Microwave for another 2 - 3 minutes. Veggies should be crisp tender, or just slightly less than your desired doneness.
  • Drain veggies and set aside. When you are almost ready to serve, heat up some butter in a sauté pan or wok until foamy.
  • Throw in garlic and veggies and stir for just a minute or two, until garlic is fragrant and veggies are coated in butter and garlic.
  • Season with salt and pepper, if desired.

Easy Buttered Green Beans and Carrot Sticks image

This is easy to make and the perfect veggie side dish to compliment your holiday table, and the combination of colours is very pretty! This recipe will serve around 6-8 people but it can be doubled. The beans and carrot sticks can be boiled hours in advance, just leave them in the ice water in the fridge until ready to saute in butter. I most always sprinkle with sliced toasted almonds, or even peanuts when serving this at my table, but that is optional.

Tips:

  • Choose Fresh Vegetables: Select crisp, vibrant green beans and tender, young carrots for the best flavor and texture.
  • Trim and Cut Evenly: Trim the ends of the green beans and cut them into 2-inch pieces. Cut the carrots into similar-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
  • Use Real Butter: For a rich, buttery flavor, opt for unsalted butter instead of margarine or oil. The butter will add depth and enhance the taste of the vegetables.
  • Don't Overcook: Saute the vegetables over medium heat until they are tender-crisp, usually around 5-7 minutes. Overcooking will result in mushy vegetables.
  • Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also experiment with other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika for a more flavorful dish.

This simple yet delicious recipe for Green Beans and Carrots Sauteed in Butter and Garlic is a perfect side dish for any meal.
