Griddled flat beans with burnt lemon tahini dressing
6 steps
Prep:10minCook:10min
Flat beans seldom are the star of the show; this is a travesty as the natural sweetness and crunchy texture are delicious especially when they are young and fresh. This dish brings them centreplate, by griddling them for a slightly charred taste, and pairing with a sweet, creamy tahini dressing.

Instructions
Step 1
De-string the beans. This can be done by snapping the ends and peeling away with your fingers, or by running a peeler along the edge of each side. Cut into lengths so that they easily fit into your griddle pan. Place in a bowl, season and lightly coat with olive oil.
Step 2
Put your griddle pan on a high heat and allow it to get scorching hot. Carefully place your beans into the pan, but don’t overcrowd the pan - cook them in batches if necessary.
Step 3
Turn occasionally until they have nice dark scorch marks on both sides.
Step 4
To make the dressing, cut the lemon in half and add to the griddle pan and leave until the cut edge has blackened and scorched.
Step 5
In a small bowl, combine the tahini, honey and garlic, then slowly add a little water, mixing as you go, until the consistency loosens. Squeeze in the burnt lemon juice and season to taste.
Step 6
Toss the beans with the dressing until thoroughly coated and serve straight away. If you like, garnish with preserved lemon or raisins and pine nuts.
