Tips:

  • Select fresh and tender runner beans. Look for beans that are bright green and free of blemishes.
  • Trim the beans. Remove the ends of the beans and any strings that may be present.
  • Blanch the beans. This will help to preserve their color and crunch. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Pat the beans dry. Use a paper towel to pat the beans dry before frying them. This will help to prevent them from splattering in the pan.
  • Use a hot pan. The pan should be hot enough to sear the beans and prevent them from sticking. Preheat the pan over medium-high heat before adding the beans.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. Cook the beans in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Season the beans. Season the beans with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before serving.
  • Serve immediately. Fried runner beans are best served immediately. They can be served as a side dish or as a main course.

Conclusion:

Quick Fried Runner Beans with Cheddar and Hazelnuts is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beans are crispy and tender, and the cheddar and hazelnuts add a rich and nutty flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
