Instructions

  1. Top and tail the beans and remove the strings. If they're small, leave them whole; if they're large, cut them into thin strips, on the diagonal if they're a little tough.
  2. Drop them into boiling salted water and cook until tender, 15 to 30 minutes depending on how young they are.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the vegan butter with the parsley and lemon juice.
  4. Rub a pan with the garlic, add the drained beans and toss them with the parsley vegan butter, salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Serve them right away: according to the author, they spoil if kept warm.
