Instructions

1. Fill a large saucepan two-thirds full of water and bring to a rapid boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the green beans, return to the boil, and cook for 3 to 7 minutes until crisp-tender, depending on their size.
2. Drain the beans straight away, then rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Drain well and set aside.
3. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of butter. When it foams, add the almonds, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and the black pepper, and stir constantly for 2 to 3 minutes until the nuts are golden and toasted.
4. Add the minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned. Remove from the heat, stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, then add the green beans. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
5. Grate in the lemon zest and toss to combine. Transfer to a serving platter, pour the pan sauce and almonds over, sprinkle with extra lemon zest, and serve immediately.
