Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
½ each 1 red and yellow capsicum, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
pinch of chilli flakes
500 grams round green beans, stems removed
small handful basil, roughly chopped
sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Yoghurt sauce
½ cup thick plain yoghurt
2 teaspoons tahini
1 clove garlic, crushed
4 eggs, poached
olive oil
ground paprika
METHOD
Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan and cook the onion, capsicums, garlic, cumin seeds and chilli flakes for 3 minutes. Add the beans and ¼ cup of water, season generously and cook, stirring often for about 15 minutes or until the beans are just tender. Add another splash of water every 5 minutes to create a little steam to help cook the beans. Stir in the basil.
Sauce: Combine the yoghurt, tahini and garlic in a bowl and season.
To serve: Divide the beans between plates and spoon over some of the yoghurt sauce. Top with a poached egg, a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of paprika and a grind of black pepper. Serve any remaining yoghurt sauce separately.
