Background

These sautéed green beans and peas go really well with roast lamb or grilled lamb chops. It takes only a few minutes to make this side dish - ideal for a traditional Sunday lunch or midweek supper.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp butter or dairy-free margarine
1 shallot onion, minced
1 tsp white wine vinegar
½ tsp cane sugar
300g green beans
300g green peas
4-5 sprigs of mint
Mint leaves to garnish
Salt and pepper

Instructions

Heat the butter in a deep frying pan and soften the shallot for a couple of minutes.
Add the vinegar and sugar, then the vegetables and the mint. Add 4 Tbsps of water.
Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Discard the mint sprigs.
Season to taste with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with fresh mint leaves.

Tips

Instead of shallots you can use 3-4 spring onions, finely chopped
