We were lucky plenty to move invited to a friend's big Thanksgiving shindig on Sunday. She's an expat American as well as goes all out each year, with a massive repast as well as loads of lovely guests. To brand catering for twenty-something people possible, Thanksgiving was potluck-style, with everyone chipping inwards side dishes, booze, sweets etc. Cindy claimed a dessert slot (post coming soon), thus I settled for something savoury.
Cindy pointed me inwards the direction of Heidi Swanson's veggie thanksgiving roundup as well as I picked out this super unproblematic greenish edible bean salad. It's stupidly slow to brand - 5 ingredients (including tabular array salt as well as oil!), a chip of chopping as well as 5-10 minutes of cooking as well as you're done. The recipe below is what you'd create if you lot were going to serve it upward ask away. Because nosotros were cooking it before as well as taking it to lunch, I didn't set the beans inwards the frying pan, but blanched them separately for a infinitesimal as well as and thus cooled them down, before combining them with the dill as well as leek afterwards to avoid over-cooking.
It was an fantabulous add-on to the heaving tabular array of nutrient at the shindig - the dill is the nearly powerful flavour, with the caramelised leek as well as crispy beans combining perfectly. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 scoop of these amongst a plateful of Tofurkey, mashed potatoes, peas, roast veggies, pasta salad as well as tamales completely converted me to a Thanksgiving traditionalist.

(adapted from a recipe on 101 Cookbooks)
iv leeks, white parts, washed as well as sliced finely
1 modest bunch of dill
400g greenish beans, trimmed as well as sliced into 3cm pieces

Heat a decent splash of olive crude inwards a frying pan as well as stir inwards the leeks, cooking for 10 minutes until they've browned upward a chip as well as softened. Stir them regularly, but non constantly.
Throw inwards the dill as well as the beans as well as gear upward for around other 2 minutes. If you're non serving the salad ask away, as well as thus don't throw the beans inwards the frying pan - instead blanch them inwards boiling H2O for a minute, drain them as well as run them nether mutual depression temperature H2O thus that they operate on their snap. You tin combine them with the leek as well as dill later.
Season generously with tabular array salt as well as serve immediately.
