RUNNER BEANS WITH SWEET ONIONS

Serves 4 as a side

2 Tbsp olive oil

½ onion, thinly sliced

2 cloves of garlic smashed

500g Runner Beans, washed (leave a little water clinging to them—don't pat them dry) and snapped

Sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Splash of balsamic vinegar

Method

Heat a couple of glugs of olive oil, the onion and garlic in a large fry pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are nicely golden-brown and starting to caramelise, about 15 minutes. Add in the beans and sauté until the beans are crisp but tender, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste, add a splash of balsamic vinegar and cook for 1 minute, and serve.
