Cod and Green Bean Salad

This green bean salad with cod is a very, very easy salad recipe, made with frozen beans and cod (fresh frozen as the cook of an unfortunate restaurant said about his food in an episode of Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen nightmare USA).

This salad is so simple that I wasn’t even sure if I should post it, but in the current economical climate I cannot afford to waste anything. And it’s so quick that you don’t even need to weight the ingredients, it all works with handfuls.

For two people:

  • two handfuls of green beans
  • two fillets of cod
  • a handful of olives
  • olive oil and vinegar
  • salt and pepper
  • ½ glass white wine
  • a clove of garlic

Put the runner beans (frozen or not) in salted boiling water, and cook them for 10-until tender, drain and put aside.

In a frying pan, heat the some olive oil with the garlic, then add the cod (roughly cut in pieces) and stir fry for 2-3 minutes, pour the wine and let it evaporate and cook it in its water until tender.

In a bowl put together the green beans, olives and cod, dress with olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.

Fastest green bean salad recipe ever.
