Time 10m

Yield Vegetables for 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/3 cup walnuts, shelled
Sea salt
3/4 pound haricots verts, stems trimmed
3 tablespoons walnut oil
Coarsely ground black pepper, or grains of paradise if you have them

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread the walnuts in a small baking dish. Bake until you can hear the walnuts sizzling or smell them when you open the oven door, about 5 minutes. (Set your timer!) Remove from the oven and coarsely chop. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water, seasoned with sea salt so that it tastes like ocean water, to a boil. Add the haricots verts and cook until they are just tender but still firm, about 4 minutes. (Don't overcook: they will continue to cook out of the water.) Drain, then spread out on a clean kitchen towel to soak up the excess water.
  • Gather the beans while hot and toss in a bowl with the warm walnuts and the walnut oil. Season generously to taste with pepper and perhaps a little more salt. Serve now or later. (They're lovely after a few hours too.)

This is a great way to use up leftover haricots verts. I added a few extra ingredients to make it a more substantial dish.

This was a delicious and easy side dish. I used fresh haricots verts from my garden and they were so tender and flavorful. The walnuts added a nice crunch and the walnut oil gave the dish a rich, nutty flavor.
