GREEN BEANS AND GREENS WITH FRIED SHALLOTS



Green Beans and Greens With Fried Shallots image

These delightfully al dente green beans are a quick-cooking nod to the green bean casserole. There is no cream of mushroom soup, but there are fried shallots. Torn leafy greens, briefly sautéed with a bit of butter and a few melted anchovies (which can be omitted for vegetarians), are added to the beans to wilt at the last minute for a very green-on-green side. Depending on what else you're serving, this could almost count as a salad. Be sure to finish with plenty of acid and flaky salt.

Time 20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup olive oil
3 large shallots, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds green beans, trimmed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 anchovy fillets
1 large bunch kale or Swiss chard, thick stems removed, leaves torn into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons apple cider, white wine vinegar or fresh lemon juice, plus more for seasoning
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat oil and shallots in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, swirling the skillet occasionally, until shallots are lightly browned and starting to crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shallots to a paper towel; season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer half of the oil from the pan to a small bowl. Return the skillet to medium-high heat, and add green beans. Season with salt and pepper and cook, without tossing, until lightly charred and blistered on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Give them a toss, and cook, another 3 to 4 minutes, until just tender and cooked through.
  • Add butter and anchovies, and season with salt and pepper. Add kale, and toss to coat until greens are wilted and tender and butter is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and add vinegar, tossing to coat. Season with salt, pepper and more vinegar, if needed.
  • Transfer to a large bowl or platter and drizzle with reserved shallot oil. Scatter with fried shallots and flaky salt, and serve.

Yield serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for dish
1 medium onion (about 6 ounces), cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, flesh cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 pound button mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
2 teaspoons coarse salt

Steps:

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Add bell pepper and mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and most of the liquid has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Remove from heat. Let cool completely.

  • Preheat the broiler, with rack about 8 inches from heat. Cook casserole, covered, until mixture is bubbling and heated through, about 10 minutes. Uncover, and cook until top is golden brown, about 30 seconds. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with fried shallots. Serve immediately.

400g green beans
25g butter
3 shallots , finely chopped

Steps:

  • Cook the green beans in boiling, salted water for 3-4 mins, until just tender. Drain and cool under cold running water. This can be done the day before - just keep the beans covered in the fridge.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them. Avoid beans that are wilted, bruised, or have brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans before cooking. Remove the tough ends of the beans by snapping them off or cutting them with a knife.
  • Blanch the green beans before frying. This will help them retain their bright green color and crisp texture. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Remove the beans from the boiling water and immediately plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a light oil for frying. Olive oil or vegetable oil are both good choices. Avoid using butter or margarine, as they can burn easily.
  • Fry the green beans in small batches. This will help to prevent them from sticking together and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Season the green beans with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper.
  • Serve the green beans immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Green beans and greens with fried shallots is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. The green beans are crispy and flavorful, while the greens are tender and slightly bitter. The fried shallots add a savory and crunchy element to the dish. This dish is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables and is sure to please everyone at the table.
