Εκτέλεση
- Put enough salted water in a saucepan and bring to boil over high heat. Add the beans and let them boil but do not soften completely, preferring them al dente.
- While the beans are boiling, prepare a large bowl of cold water in with added ice cubes.
- Once the beans are cooked, transfer them to the bowl of cold water using tongs. Let them cool for 3΄-4΄mins. and strain.
- To roast the almonds, spread non-stick paper on a baking sheet. Spread the almonds and bake at 160 ℃ (not on the grill) for 8΄-10΄ until they turn brown.
- Finely chop the green onion, dill and basil and cut the feta into small cubes.
- In a small jar, mix the ingredients for the dressing.
- Put the beans, almonds and other ingredients in a salad bowl and pour over the dressing.
Cook's Tip
In summer we use fresh beans or bush beans. We can roast the almonds in a non-stick pan without grease until they turn brown.
