Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 ripe Fuyu (not Hachiya) persimmons* (about 1 pound), cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices and each slice cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup 1-inch pieces fresh chives
*available at specialty produce markets

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.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just because I'm not a fan of persimmons. I think it would be great for someone who likes sweet and savory dishes.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover persimmons. I had some persimmons that were starting to get overripe, and this dish was the perfect way to use them up.
