This vibrant vegan side dish offers a sophisticated twist on classic green beans, pairing the fresh crunch of the vegetable with a deeply savoury miso dressing. The combination of white miso, sharp rice vinegar and a hint of heat from Japanese mustard creates a complex umami flavour profile that perfectly complements the sweetness of the beans. It is a refreshing departure from traditional buttery sides, providing a lighter yet punchy accompaniment to any main course.
Ideal for dinner parties or a midweek meal, this healthy recipe can be partially prepared in advance, making it a stress-free addition to your cooking repertoire. The toasted sliced almonds add a delightful nutty texture, while the spring onions provide a fresh, sharp finish. Serve it at room temperature to allow the fermented soy flavours to really shine, or gently warmed for a more comforting touch.
