  • 8 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
  • 800 gm Romano beans or runner beans, halved widthways

Main
  • 1

    Meanwhile, cook beans in a large saucepan of boiling salted water over high heat until tender (6-7 minutes), drain and transfer to a warm serving dish. Drizzle garlic and oil over, season to taste and serve hot.
