🧂 Ingredients

1 Wash the green beans and peal the shallots, if needed. Remove the ends of the
string beans and cut the shallots into large slices.
2 Bring a large pot of water to a boil and blanch the beans for about 1 1/2
minutes. Make sure not to over do them or else they'll get mushy.
3 Drain immediately and immerse in a bowl of ice water.
4 Heat the butter and oil in a large sauce or sauté pan and sauté the shallots on
medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned.
5 Drain the beans and add them to the sauté pan with the shallots. Salt and
pepper to taste. Only heat the beans until they are warm.
