how to make green beans almondine


Heat a medium-sized pan until it is nearly smoking hot. Toast the almonds (move frequently so they toast evenly).


Add the green beans. The heat of the pan will scorch them slightly. This is fine.


Add a few splashes of water, just enough to create the steam that will cook the beans, but not so much that it cools down the pan.


Add the raisins and the ground clove.


Continue splashing water into the pan. Use just enough that it steams immediately, and wait until the pan heats up again before the next splash.


Place in a serving dish, and sprinkle with sea salt to taste.
