5 minsIngredients
250g green beans, ends trimmed | |
2 medium zucchini, finely shredded | |
100g baby kale or spinach leaves | |
PUMPKIN SEED & CORIANDER DRESSING | |
1 cup coriander leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped | |
½ cup pumpkin seeds, lightly toasted | |
1 clove garlic | |
½ green chilli (de-seed for less heat) | |
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil | |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
I used a mandolin to get long strands of zucchini, but you could use a sharp knife or spiraliser for great results too.
Instructions
1. | Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil, drop in the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes or until just tender. |
2. | Remove the beans from the pan with tongs and transfer to a bowl of iced water. |
3. | When cold, drain well and transfer to a large bowl. |
4. | Add the shredded courgette and baby kale or spinach leaves. |
5. | In a small food processor, combine all the dressing ingredients and pulse to form a rough dressing, similar in consistency to pesto. |
6. | Season to taste with salt and pepper, then stir through the beans, courgette and kale or spinach. Serve immediately. |
