Method

  1. Mix the red onion with the vinegar, sugar and ¼ tsp salt and set aside to lightly pickle for 20 mins.

  2. Bring a pan of salted water to the boil over a medium heat and carefully tip in the green beans. Cook for 3-4 mins until tender but not soft, then plunge into a bowl of ice-cold water and leave for 5 mins. Drain thoroughly and pat dry.
