BEANS SAUTEED WITH GARLIC      --------  ------------  --------------------------------     1       lb           String Beans     1       lg           Fat Clove of Garlic     2       tb           Sunflower oil     1       c            Water                          Salt and Pepper      Take a handful of beans, lay them flat and cut of the    ends. Do the same with the other end, then the rest of    the beans. Wash them. Heat the oil in a large frying    pan, preferably one in which you can lay all the beans    in one layer, and put in the beans and finely chopped    garlic. Turn for two or three minutes until well    coated in garlic and oil. Pour in just enough water to    cover and turn the heat up to maximum. The water will    boil away as the beans cook - it will take no more    than seven or eight minutes. Once the beans started to    sizzle as the water boils away, sprinkle them    generously with salt and black pepper. When the water    has completely evaporated the beans are ready.  |
