A good salad consists of lots of different textures, flavours and colours. Especially if the salad needs to be festive enough for the Christmas table! Our haricots verts are the perfect base for a salad: with a nice bite, a slightly sweet flavour and a fresh green colour. Combine them with tangy red onion, savoury dark purple olives, sweet grilled peppers and crunchy walnuts. - Directly to... - - [Ingredients](https://www.eatme.eu/en/recipes/green-bean-salad-with-pickled-red-onion-olives-and-walnuts#ingredients) - [Preparation method](https://www.eatme.eu/en/recipes/green-bean-salad-with-pickled-red-onion-olives-and-walnuts#preparation-method) ## Ingredients ### Green bean salad - *50* g walnuts - *400* g EAT ME green beans - *2* roasted yellow peppers, from a jar - *80* g Kalamata olives, pitted - *15* g dill ### Pickled red onion - *1* small red onion - *75* ml rice vinegar - *1* 1 tsp granulated sugar - ½ tsp salt ### Lime and honey vinaigrette - *1* EAT ME lime - *1* liquid honey - *3* extra virgin olive oil - salt and pepper to taste ## **EAT ME** products in this recipe - [EAT ME Haricots verts](https://www.eatme.eu/en/products/vegetables/haricots-verts) - [EAT ME Limes](https://www.eatme.eu/en/products/exotic-fruit/limes) Keep screen on ## Preparation method 1. Slice the red onion into wafer-thin half-rings. Mix the rice vinegar with the sugar and salt in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Add the red onion, massage it in well with your fingers and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 20 minutes. 2. Heat a frying pan without oil and toast the walnuts over a medium heat for about 3 minutes until golden brown. Leave them to cool on a plate and chop them coarsely. 3. Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Remove the ends from the haricots verts. Cook them for about 6 minutes until al dente and bright green. 4. Drain the haricots verts and rinse them immediately under cold running water to stop them cooking further. Drain well and pat them dry. 5. Cut the roasted yellow peppers into thin strips. Roughly chop the Kalamata olives and strip the leaves from the sprigs of dill. 6. Scrub the lime clean, grate the green zest using a fine grater and squeeze the juice from the fruit. Whisk the lime zest and juice with the honey and olive oil to make a vinaigrette. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 7. Mix the haricots verts with the pepper strips, olives and lime-honey vinaigrette. Arrange the salad on a large platter. 8. Drain the pickled red onion thoroughly. Scatter the onion over the salad and sprinkle with the walnuts and dill.
