French-Style Green Beans image

SALAD OF FRENCH-STYLE GREEN BEANS AND GOAT'S CHEESE



Salad of French-Style Green Beans and Goat's Cheese image

French-style green beans (which is NOT the same as French green beans!) are great for salads: they are slightly sweeter than "normal" green beans, and because they are so flat they are easy to blanch quickly without losing any of the goodness. This recipe is great for picknicks -- bring the cheese separately and add to the salad just before serving. If you want to add some colour, add a finely cut tomato.

100 g black olives
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 lemon
salt

Steps:

  • Juice the lemon. Cut the beans diagonally into broad diamond shapes (any shape will do, but this just looks pretty).

  • Crumble the cheese over the salad.
