Prep time
15 mins
Ingredients
- Parmesan: 75g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), shaved into large curls
- Cherry Tomato: 100g cherry tomato, quartered
- Olive Oil: 3 tbsp olive oil
- Green Bean: 200g green bean, trimmed
- Lemon: juice 1 lemon
- Herb: handful soft green herbs, such as basil, chervil, parsley and tarragon
- Button Mushroom: 200g pack small button mushroom, finely sliced
Directions
- In a bowl, toss mushrooms with half the lemon juice and set aside - the lemon juice will soften the mushrooms. Blanch the beans in boiling salted water for 5-6 mins until they still have a crunch, but they are not squeaky, then drain and cool in iced water.
- Toss the beans and mushrooms together in a bowl with the herbs and season with salt and pepper. Toss through the tomatoes, remaining lemon juice and the olive oil and scatter with Parmesan just before serving.
