Slow-Roasted Green Beans with Sage

This slow-roasted green beans with sage recipe transforms a simple garden vegetable into a deeply savoury and aromatic side dish. By roasting the beans at a steady temperature alongside fragrant woody herbs and spring onions, they lose their crunch and develop a tender, almost caramelised texture. The combination of garlic and fresh rosemary provides a robust flavour profile that works beautifully during the cooler months, offering a sophisticated alternative to traditional steamed greens.

As a naturally vegan dish, it is an excellent addition to a plant-based feast or a classic Sunday roast. The slow-cooking process draws out the natural sweetness of the spring onions, creating a rich accompaniment that requires very little active preparation. Serve these beans alongside roasted root vegetables or a nut roast for a wholesome, comforting meal that highlights the best of seasonal herbaceous flavours.
