Ingredients

• 80ml (1/3 cup) extra virgin olive oil


• 40g (about 14) drained anchovy fillets, roughly chopped


• 3 garlic cloves, cut into thin strips


• 600g green beans, topped


• 75g (11/2 cups) fine breadcrumbs from day-old, Italian-style bread


• Ground black pepper, to taste

Method

• 
  
  
  Step 1
  
  
  
  
  Heat the oil in a large heavy-based frying pan over medium heat. Add the anchovies and garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes or until the anchovies begin to break down and the garlic is golden.
  
  
  


• 
  
  
  Step 2
  
  
  
  
  Meanwhile, steam the beans in a steaming basket over a saucepan of simmering water for 4-5 minutes or until they are bright green and tender crisp. (Alternatively, cook in boiling water.)
  
  
  


• 
  
  
  Step 3
  
  
  
  
  Transfer the beans to a heatproof bowl and add 1 tablespoon of the oil mixture. Toss well to combine. Cover to keep warm and set aside.
  
  
  


• 
  
  
  Step 4
  
  
  
  
  Heat the remaining oil mixture in the pan over medium-high heat. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring, for 4-5 minutes or until they are crisp and golden brown. Season with pepper.
  
  
  


• 
  
  
  Step 5
  
  
  
  
  Place the beans on a serving platter and sprinkle with 1/2 the breadcrumb mixture. Place the remaining breadcrumb mixture in a small serving bowl to pass around separately.
