How to make Maple Mustard Green Beans?

This Maple Mustard Green Beans involves just 3 basic steps and they get done in under 10 minutes.

The first step is to make the Maple Mustard Sauce

To make the Maple Mustard sauce, combine Dijon Mustard, Maple Syrup, and Mayonnaise in a bowl. Mix it and keep aside.

The second step is to cook the Green Beans

Take a pot of boiling water and add a pinch of salt to it. As the water boils, as the green beans, and after 2 minutes, take them out and throw them in a bowl of ice-cold water. This step is called shocking the green beans. This will ensure that your Green Beans are partially cooked and also the color of the Green Beans is intact.

The third step is to saute the Green Beans

Heat some butter in a Pan. As the Butter melts, add minced garlic and chopped shallots to the Pan. As the shallots get caramelized, add the Green Beans. Saute the Green Beans over medium-low flame for 2-3 minutes.

Add the Maple Mustard Sauce and mix well so that the Green Beans gets coated with the sauce.

Season with Salt and Freshly cracked Black Pepper. Also, add some Maple Syrup and Chili flakes for garnish. (This step is optional), however, I love the final drizzle of Maple Syrup. It just makes this so delicious. And of course that just complements the heat of the chili flakes 🙂

Take it out on a plate and serve hot!

How to use Fresh Green Beans

While the majority of us go for canned Green Beans, this recipe works the best with fresh Green Beans. You can get fresh Green Beans from the farmers market and they are especially good at this time of the year.

To use the green beans, take all the green beans on a chopping board and trim off the edges.

If you want, you can chop the Green Beans into halves.

Now, soak the Green Beans in boiling water for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, transfer them to a bowl of ice-cold water. This will speed up the cooking process of the Green Beans.
