Method

  1. Heat a dry frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the green beans to the pan. Cook for 5-7 mins, tossing regularly, until starting to char. You might need to do this in batches.
  2. Remove from the heat, add the olive oil and garlic cloves, then quickly shake the pan to toss.
  3. Return all the beans to the pan, then as soon as the garlic starts to smell fragrant, tip everything onto a serving platter and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt.
