Ingredients
- 450 grams green beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 pieces hard-boiled eggs
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 cups water
Directions
Step 1
Trim the ends off the green beans and rinse them under cool water.
Step 2
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Add the green beans and blanch them for 4-5 minutes, or until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
Peel and slice the yellow onion thinly.
Step 4
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and caramelized.
Step 5
Add the cooked green beans to the skillet with the onions and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 6
Place the cooled green bean and onion mixture into a food processor. Add the hard-boiled eggs, walnuts, salt, and black pepper.
Step 7
Pulse the mixture in the food processor until it reaches a coarse pâté-like consistency. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure even blending. Avoid over-processing to keep some texture.
Step 8
Taste the mixture and adjust salt and pepper to your preference.
Step 9
Transfer the Vegetarian Chopped Liver Green Beans to a serving bowl. Garnish with additional walnuts or a sprinkle of chopped parsley if desired.
Step 10
Serve chilled or at room temperature with crackers, fresh vegetables, or as a spread on bread. Enjoy!
