Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon (15 g / 0.53 oz) butter
  • ½ pound (225 g / 7.9 oz) fresh green or wax beans, trimmed
  • 1 cup (115 g / 4.1 oz) thinly sliced radishes
  • ½ teaspoon (2 g / 0.07 oz) sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon (1.5 g / 0.05 oz) salt
  • 2 tablespoons (20 g / 0.71 oz) pine nuts, toasted
  • Toast pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes, shaking the pan frequently until golden and fragrant. Watch them closely as they burn quickly.
  • For a zesty twist, add a clove of minced garlic with the radishes and finish the dish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving.
  • Ensure your beans are completely dry before adding them to the hot butter. This helps them sear rather than steam, resulting in a better texture.
  • Feel free to substitute pine nuts with toasted slivered almonds or chopped walnuts for a different nutty crunch.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat until it begins to foam.
  3. Add the trimmed green beans and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
  4. Add the sliced radishes to the skillet and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the radishes are just tender.
  5. Stir in the sugar and salt until well combined.
  6. Remove from heat and sprinkle generously with toasted pine nuts before serving.
