Tangy scarlet runner bean salad

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 pounds Scarlet runner beans; fresh
½ medium Red onion; thinly sliced
1 Clove garlic; minced
6 tablespoons Olive oil
2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
½ teaspoon Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch Paprika
1 teaspoon Prepared mustard

Directions

Wash the beans, snap off the ends, and French-cut into lengthwise strips. Steam briefly, until just tender; drain thoroughly, and place in a large bowl with the onion and garlic. Toss well.

Combine the remaining ingredients to make a dressing. Pour over the beans, toss well, and refrigerate for an hour or two before serving to blend flavors.

Serves 4 or 5.
