GREEN BEANS WITH BROWN BUTTER, WILD MUSHROOMS AND WALNUTS image

Yield 10-12 people

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt
2 lbs green beans, trimmed
8 tbsp unsalted butter
8 shallots, thinly sliced
8 oz wild mushrooms, roughly chopped
Fresh ground pepper
1 cup toasted walnuts, chopped

Steps:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Generously salt the water, add the green beans and cook until tender, about 5-6 minutes. Drain the beans, then transfer into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain again and set aside. In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook until milk solids start to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring often, under tender (5-7 minutes). Add some salt to taste and season with pepper. Stir in the green beans and walnuts and cook until the beans are warmed through. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
