Lemon-Roasted Green Beans with Marcona Almonds

These lemon-roasted green beans with Marcona almonds offer a sophisticated twist on a classic vegetable side dish. By roasting the beans at a high temperature, they develop a wonderful char and a deep, savoury flavour that far surpasses anything achieved by boiling. The addition of fresh marjoram provides a subtle floral note, while the Marcona almonds—known for their buttery texture—add a satisfying crunch and richness that elevates the entire plate.

This vibrant vegan dish is an excellent choice for a Sunday roast or a festive dinner party, providing a fresh contrast to heavier mains. Packed with fibre and vitamins, it is as nutritious as it is delicious. Serve it warm alongside roasted root vegetables or a plant-based tart for a complete and colourful meal that guests will love.
