Ingredients
- 1½ lb (750g) baby potatoes
- 1 lb (500g) green beans ends trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- lemon juice to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil then add the halved potatoes.
- I prefer par-boiling the potatoes before sautéing to speed up the process and cook them evenly.
- Boil for 10 minutes then drain and set aside to dry while you preheat the pan.
- Preheat a large frying pan over medium-high heat then add a few tablespoons of olive oil.
- Add the drained potatoes and cook for a few minutes until they are golden brown on all sides.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the green beans then sauté for 5-8 minutes, tossing regularly, until the green beans are al dente.
- Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper then serve with a squeeze of lemon juice.
