Haricots Verts With Carmelized Shallots image

I love the tiny little green beans I can find packaged in some grocery stores labeled haricots verts! I can just eat them like candy, but they are even better cooked this way!

Time 35m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb French haricots vert, trimmed (tiny green beans)
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1/2 tablespoon light brown sugar
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 lb shallot, halved lengthwise and peeled
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (may sub balsamic vinegar)
salt
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste

Steps:

  • Cook the green beans in boiling salted water to cover 3 to 4 minutes, or until crisp tender. Drain. Plunge the beans into ice water to stop the cooking process; drain.
  • Melt the butter and brown sugar with olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add shallots, and saute 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add vinegar, and saute 10 minutes or until the shallots are golden brown and tender.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high; add the green beans. Saute 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

This recipe is way too complicated. I don't have time to caramelize shallots.

I followed the recipe exactly and the haricots verts turned out mushy. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some garlic and herbs next time.

The shallots didn't caramelize as much as I would have liked. I think I'll use a higher heat next time.

I found that the haricots verts were a bit too crunchy for my taste. I think I'll cook them for a few minutes longer next time.

I'm not a big fan of haricots verts, but this recipe changed my mind. The caramelized shallots really elevated the flavor of the beans.

This is a great recipe for a healthy side dish. The haricots verts are packed with nutrients and the shallots add a nice flavor boost.

I added a bit of bacon to this recipe and it was delicious! The smokiness of the bacon really complemented the sweetness of the shallots.

I followed the recipe exactly and the haricots verts turned out perfectly. They were tender and still had a bit of a bite to them.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. I always have shallots and haricots verts on hand, so it's a great go-to dish when I'm short on time.

These haricots verts with caramelized shallots were a hit at my dinner party! The shallots added a delicious sweetness that balanced out the bitterness of the beans.
