You can substitute these with any type of green or wax bean. During bean season our garden overflows so any new recipe I find I gladly try. These are fresh and light.
Ingredients:
1/2 tablespoon coarse salt
1 lb green beans, trimmed
2 tablespoons butter, cut in small pieces
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest (about 1 lemon)
fresh ground pepper
Directions:
1. Fill a medium saucepan 3/4 full of water and bring to a boil.
2. Add salt and beans.
3. Return to a boil and cook 4-5 minutes or they are crisp tender.
4. Remove from heat and drain.
5. Put back in pan and add butter and zest.
6. Season with pepper and more salt if you need it.
