Step by Step guide
Step 1
Thaw the green beans and boil them in salted water for 10 minutes, then drain the water and place the pot with the beans in a bowl filled with ice. The beans will retain their bright green color due to the sudden temperature change.
Step 2
Add olive oil to the beans.
Step 3
Squeeze the juice from half a lemon.
Step 4
Slice the pears thinly and drizzle with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Step 5
Lightly toast the nuts in a dry skillet or in the oven, then crush them in a mortar, but not too finely.
Step 6
Also lightly toast the sesame seeds over low heat.
Step 7
Crush a large pinch of coarse sea salt and pepper in the mortar.
Step 8
Mix the beans and pears with the lettuce leaves, season with the salt and pepper mixture, add the nut oil, and mix again.
Step 9
Transfer the salad to a serving dish, sprinkle with nuts and sesame seeds.
