Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh green beans
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium (finely chopped) yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Wash and trim the ends of the green beans. Set aside.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Add the green beans to the skillet, stirring to coat them evenly in the butter and onions.
Pour in the water and cover the skillet with a lid. Allow the beans to steam for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crisp.
Remove the lid and stir in the white vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the excess liquid to evaporate and the beans to absorb the flavors.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Transfer the Dutch Green Beans to a serving dish and serve warm alongside your favorite main course.
