How to make green bean salad

  1. Prepare the green beans: Trim the green beans and slice into 1-2 inch (5cm) pieces. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and add the green beans. Simmer for 5 minute or until the green beans are just tender. Remove and place in a bowl of cold water then drain.
  2. Make the dressing: Grate fresh garlic with a microplain or chop very finely. Combine with olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper. Pour over the green beans and allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  3. Assemble: Chop tomatoes (I quartered mine because they were a little larger than cherry tomatoes) and add to the green beans. Cube feta cheese and add.

Making ahead

The green beans and feta can be marinated up to 24 hours ahead of serving. Add the tomatoes right before serving. Leftover salad can be kept in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The tomatoes will become a little soft and mushy if kept for longer than that.
