Ghee Blistered Romano – Super King Markets

Ghee Blistered Romano Beans – A Seasonal Treat

Chef Rebecca Taylor of @Souley_Nourished brings us a vibrant seasonal recipe featuring Romano Beans, available until September at Super King Markets. These long, sweet, crunchy beans from the snap pea and string bean family shine in this dish, enhanced by ghee, apricots, and a honey herb dressing. Perfect for a side dish or light entrée!

Ingredients:

• Trimmed Romano Beans

• Ghee

• Sliced apricots

• Purslane

• Fresh herbs

• Olive oil

• Chopped garlic

• Honey

• Lemon juice

• Salt

Step-by-Step Directions

Step 1:
Heat a large scoop of ghee in a piping-hot pan. Trim the Romano Beans by snapping off the ends.

Step 2:
Add the beans to the pan, ensuring they are well-coated in ghee. Place a heavy pot or cast-iron skillet on top of the beans to encourage blistering.

Step 3:
Cook for about 10 minutes, flipping once, until the beans are tender but still bright green with a slight bite. Remove from the pan.

Step 4:
Toss sliced apricots into the pan and cook briefly until lightly colored.

Step 5:
Prepare a honey herb dressing by whisking together olive oil, chopped garlic, honey, lemon juice, and salt.

Step 6:
Drizzle the honey herb dressing over the beans and apricots. Garnish with fresh herbs and purslane. Serve immediately.

Chef’s Tip:

For the best flavor, use high-quality ghee and fresh seasonal produce. This dish pairs beautifully with grilled meats or as a standalone vegetarian option.

Perfect Pairing:

Enjoy with a crisp white wine or as a side to roasted chicken for a complete meal.
