Ingredients

500 g green beans trimmed
zest of one lemon
juice of one lemon
2 teaspoon olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to the boil, add the beans then bring back to the boil
Boil beans for 5-8 mins - depending on your preferred texture
Once beans are cooked to your liking then drain immediately into a sieve or a colander, return the beans to the now dry pot, add lemon juice, zest, salt & pepper to taste & serve

Notes

This might seem like an obvious tip - but if you are using the same lemon for the juice & zest - zest it first!!! Sounds obvious I know, but I actually did it the other way around once - a long time ago - but still...
