Cook Time:
Savor the flavors of summer with a delightful vegetable medley, the ideal pairing for succulent roast beef fillet.
Ingredients:
  • 400g (2 cups) dried great northern beans or cannellini beans
  • 100g butter, chopped
  • 2 eschalots, halved, thinly sliced
  • 16 zucchini flowers, with zucchini attached
  • 2 bunches asparagus, trimmed, halved widthwise
  • 300g green beans, trimmed
Instructions:
  • Place the beans in a pan and generously cover them with water. Bring to a vigorous boil. Drain the beans. Return them to the pan, cover with fresh water, and simmer over medium heat for about 1 hour or until they are tender. Drain the beans once more.
  • In a frying pan over medium heat, melt half of the butter. Cook half of the eschalots for 5 minutes until soft. Then, mix in the cooked beans and season generously.
  • Prepare zucchini flowers by removing them and tearing them into strips. Use a mandolin to thinly slice the zucchini and asparagus lengthwise, and halve the green beans lengthwise with a knife.
  • Melt the rest of the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the remaining shallot and sliced zucchini, asparagus, and green beans. Cook for 3-5 minutes until tender. Stir in torn zucchini flowers and serve with beef.
