Simple and delicious, tastes very fancy for just a few ingredients -
This is a fantastic recipe for green beans. I made these for our Christmas lunch this year and they were enjoyed by all. Followed the recipe exactly and it is definitely one I will be making again. Thanks! -
The shallots and butter provide the perfect amount of extra spunk to make the green beans more enjoyable. This was incredibly easy and made the kitchen smell great! I halved the recipe and had no problems.
