Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 400 grams Green beans
- 4 Eggs
- 200 milliliters Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 120 milliliters Chicken or vegetable broth
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Trim the ends of the green beans and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add the green beans. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until bright green and crisp-tender. Drain and set aside.
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 8-10 minutes. Drain and transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice them into halves or quarters.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Mince the garlic and sauté it for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour over the butter and garlic, whisking continuously to create a roux. Cook for 1 minute.
Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, whisking to remove any lumps. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Turn the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Gently fold the cooked potatoes, green beans, and boiled eggs into the creamy sauce. Stir until everything is well-coated.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
