Main Ingredients- 150g fresh green beans
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 20g unsalted butter
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 pinch of freshly ground black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the green beans thoroughly and pat them dry. Blanch the green beans in boiling salted water for just 1-2 minutes to maintain their crispness. Immediately rinse them in cold water to stop the cooking process, then drain well. Cut the blanched green beans into bite-sized pieces, about 3-4 cm long.
Step 2
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then add the 20g of butter and let it melt. Once the butter is melted and fragrant, add the prepared green beans. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender-crisp and coated in the delicious buttery oil.
Step 3
When the green beans are cooked to your liking, season with 1 pinch of salt and 1 pinch of freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to your taste. For an extra layer of flavor, you can add a dash of oyster sauce or soy sauce. Stir everything together for another moment to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed. Your flavorful Green Bean Butter Sauté is now ready to be enjoyed!
