Ingredients

  • 450g green beans
  • 4 shallots , finely sliced
  • 1 ½ tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 ½ tbsp golden caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp white or yellow mustard seeds

Instructions

  • Cook the beans in boiling, salted water until they’ve lost their ‘squeakiness’ but still have a bit of bite. Drain, plunge into cold water to cool, then drain again. Tip them into a kitchen roll-lined bowl and cover with a sheet of kitchen roll until ready to serve.
  • Mix together the sliced shallots, olive oil, vinegar, sugar and mustard seeds with some seasoning, then set aside.
  • To serve, toss the dressing through the beans in a serving bowl.
