Method

Bring a large pot of water to boil, season the water with a pinch of salt. Blanch the green beans for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until they are crisp

While the beans are cooking, whisk together the dressing ingredients and set aside

In a fry pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat until light bubbling. Add the sliced almonds and capsicum and sauté for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat and add the garlic. Sauté for an additional 1 minute

Using tongs, transfer the blanched green beans from the pot directly to the frypan. Sauté briefly, gently tossing the green beans with the almond mixture until evenly combined and the green beans are tender. Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle over the dressing. Serve warm
