Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh green beans
- 1 medium head cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 50 grams parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Instructions
Start by washing and trimming the ends of the green beans. Set them aside.
Cut the cauliflower into small, bite-sized pieces to mimic the size of potato chunks.
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Add the green beans and cauliflower, cooking them for about 5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
Drain the vegetables and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and maintain their vibrant color.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the drained green beans and cauliflower to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown slightly.
Sprinkle the onion powder, salt, and black pepper over the vegetables. Stir to combine well.
Lower the heat and gently mix in the grated Parmesan cheese, allowing it to melt and evenly coat the vegetables.
Remove the skillet from the heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
