One of my favorite vegetables are green beans, also called pole beans and snap beans.
In this case my beans aren't actually green, they're purple.
They look a little big, huh? No problem, in fact for the way I plan to cook them it's actually a good thing.
First, snap off each end.
Next, French cut each bean.
When you've finished slicing add them to your pan.
Add salt, pepper, and butter to taste - you won't need much. Then cook over medium heat. Normally you cook a green bean until it's bright green and still has a little crunch when you bite. Good news! Purple beans actually turn green as they cook!
Magic vegetables. Eat and enjoy!
