Green beans with garlic and nuts – Vegetarian

Perfect for summer, easy to make and delicious, this recipe is on repeat for me during summer days, and we have a long summer ahead 🙃.

Ingredients: (for 6 servings)

• 1 kg of green beans (frozen or fresh)
• 150 g mixed nuts
• 3 medium carrots
• 5-6 medium/small peppers
• a clove of garlic
• 100 g butter
• fresh parsley
• salt + pepper
• 200 ml water
• 100 g yogurt
• 2 tablespoons mix of Italian herbs and spices

Preparation:

Wash, clean and cut the vegetables. Cut the carrots into slices, cut the peppers into strips, peel the garlic and crush it through a garlic press, then divide it into two equal parts.

Put the water and butter in a large pot or pan. When the butter has melted, add the beans, carrots and peppers to the pot. Add salt + pepper and a spoonful of Italian herbs, mix well and leave it to cook with the lid on, stirring periodically, for about 30 minutes or until all the vegetables are cooked and the water has reduced.

While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the nuts. Chop them coarsely with a knife and then brown them in a pan. Leave aside.

When the vegetables are cooked, add half of the garlic, mix well, cook for another 1-2 minutes and turn off the heat.

Prepare the garlic sauce: Mix the yoghurt with the rest of the garlic, the other spoon of Italian spices, salt and pepper.

Serve with garlic sauce, fresh chopped parsley and walnuts on top.
