Description

Imagine tender-crisp green beans transformed into a delightful culinary experience. These fried green beans offer a satisfying crunch that gives way to a burst of fresh, vegetal flavor. Each slender bean is enveloped in a light, seasoned coating, providing a textural contrast that's simply irresistible.

The preparation involves carefully selecting fresh, vibrant green beans and then lightly coating them in a specially crafted blend of seasonings and a crispy breading. The beans are then gently submerged in hot oil, where they quickly develop a golden-brown hue and a delightfully crispy exterior. The frying process seals in the natural moisture of the green beans, ensuring they remain tender on the inside while achieving that desirable crunch on the outside.

These fried green beans are incredibly versatile. Enjoy them as a satisfying snack, perfect for those moments when you crave something savory and crunchy. They also make an excellent side dish, adding a touch of elegance and excitement to any meal.

Serve them alongside grilled chicken, steak, or fish for a balanced and flavorful dinner. Consider them as a creative alternative to traditional vegetable sides, offering a unique and exciting twist on a familiar favorite. Their crispy texture and savory flavor make them a hit with both kids and adults.

Experiment with different dipping sauces to complement the flavor of the fried green beans. A classic creamy dip, a tangy vinaigrette, or a spicy sriracha mayo can all enhance the overall experience. The possibilities are endless, allowing you to customize the dish to your liking.

The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity and the ability to transform a humble vegetable into something truly special. It's a delightful way to enjoy green beans, offering a satisfying crunch and a burst of flavor that will leave you wanting more. The vibrant green color of the beans, combined with the golden-brown coating, makes for a visually appealing dish that is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate.

    Coconut Oil

Instructions

    1.
    Wash and thoroughly dry the green beans. Remove any stems. For easier handling, cut or break longer beans into 3-4 inch pieces.
    2.
    In one bowl, whisk an egg until smooth. In a separate shallow bowl or flat container, combine almond flour, parmesan cheese, pepper, and onion powder. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
    3.
    Dip each green bean individually into the egg mixture, then immediately coat it with the dry mixture. Ensure each bean is fully covered. Arrange the breaded green beans on a tray and freeze for 1-2 hours.
    4.
    Heat a skillet over high heat. A cast iron skillet is ideal, but any non-stick skillet suitable for frying will work. Melt up to 1 1/2 cups of coconut oil in the skillet, ensuring the oil is about 1/2-inch deep. Carefully add about 10 frozen green beans at a time.
    5.
    Fry the green beans for about 3 minutes each, turning them as the edges brown. If needed, sift the oil or replace it with fresh coconut oil to prevent burning from loose breading. Transfer the cooked green beans to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
    6.
    Serve immediately and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or hummus!
