Hello World! I've had my head down at work the last couple of weeks, which has also resulted in far too much hotel or dial-in food and no blogging. So, today, a yearning for something green combined with something comforting (rainrainrainrainrainrain) resulted in this lunch, made of an incongrous north African-feeling green beans dish and horseradish cheese on toast.
For the beans: cook the beans (not too much! should be crunchy still when you finish cooking them, perhaps only 3 mins in boiling water). Drain and rinse in cold water.
Ideally use a high-rimmed frying pan (eg wok) for the next bit. Mix some ground almonds, whole roasted almonds, chili flakes and salt and cook over medium heat until it starts smelling nice. At this point, hurl the beans into the frying pan, mix around until coated and warm and serve.
I shall not give you instructions on how to make cheese on toast, apart from a suggestion that a layer of horseradish, mustard, marmite or chutney goes down nicely under the cheese.
Mmmmmm looks yummy..hungry now! (This is your little Roman amica, just so you know, as I guess I'll still post as 'a-nun-y-mouse')
ReplyDeleteO.M.G. I think the ice-cube/milk idea is genius! (Mind you, my favourite work outfit is a chichi number fashioned from a Sugar Puffs packet so ...)
