Tell me your tried and tested best dishes with french beans please.

[admylin]

I usually just fry them with onion, garlic and parsley but would be nice to hear any of your more imaginative ideas! We're having a vegetarian day so no meat.

lay them flat in a big tray
scatter garlic and cut up lemons on them
wrap cod in proscuitto, lay on top
drizzle with olive oil, cook for 30 mins

sorry, not veggie!

as you are planning, admylin, but with a tin of chopped tomatoes?

Yes, I might just turn it into a curry with the tomato and abit of coconut cream then we can all eat it with naan bread. Mmmm quite looking forward to tonights meal now!

Boil them until they are aldente and then toss them in a dressing of lemon juice, olive oil salt and pepper and scatter with really thinly shaved garlic and chopped fresh mint. Divine, really, really scrummy.
