Green Beans

Ingredients

Green beans
butter

Directions

1. Take the little ends off the top and bottom of the beans. This is boring so do it while listening or watching something interesting.
2. Bring a frying pan of water to boil
3. Immerse the beans in the water for 4 minutes. The beans should be bright green and still crisp. After 4 minutes pour out the water and set beans aside.
4. In the frying pan, melt lots of butter and let it get very hot but not start to smoke and burn.
5. Begin to toss the beans in the very hot butter and keep tossing until the beans begin to darken. It is important to keep the heat high. You can listen for the sizzle of the beans. Keep stirring for another 4 -5 minutes.
6. Add lots of salt and pepper, stir and serve
