Serves: 2 – 3

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp sunflower or vegetable Oil
• 150g frozen fine whole green beans, ends trimmed

Method

1. Heat 2 tsp oil in a large wok or frying pan, then add the beans and cook over a high heat for 5 minutes, to defrost. Add the onion and pepper and fry for 3-5 minutes more, until the vegetables start to soften. Tip onto a plate.
