Serves: 4 people as a side dish | Prep time: 5 minutes | Cook time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 200g green beans
- 200g sugar snap peas
- 100g garden peas (frozen is fine)
- 100g broad beans (frozen is fine)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 large garlic cloves, sliced
- 1 orange, zested
- 30g blanched hazelnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
- Large pinch of Maldon Garlic Sea Salt
- Cracked black pepper
- A few springs of fresh mint leave, to garnish
Method
- Place a large pan of water on to boil. When it is simmering, add the green beans and sugar snap peas. Let them blanch for just 2 minutes then remove with a slotted spoon or tongs onto a large plate with some kitchen paper. Then add the frozen peas and broad beans to the pan of water and do the same, after 2 minutes drain them into a sieve.
- Place a large frying pan onto a medium heat and add the olive oil, once warm add the sliced garlic and let them gently fry for 1 minute. Then add the beans and sugar snap peas to the pan. Sauté them so they start to pop and char in places. If the garlic looks like its catching, then simply add a splash of water. Finally add the peas and broad beans to the pan, and sauté just until they warm back through.
- Tip all the veg onto a large serving platter and season well with Maldon Garlic Sea Salt and some cracked black pepper. Then garnish with orange zest, chopped toasted hazelnuts and some mint leaves before serving.
