It is also great with coconut in it. Green beans are in season now and I got some lovely fresh ones in my farm box yesterday interesting they are taken off the plant while the beans are still immature and are one of the few beans eaten fresh. They are packed with nutrients especially vitamin K, vitamin C, vitamin A and fiber.
Love the added kick. I love to eat green beans. Looks really good. I've got to try the coconut milk trick.
