Method

  1. Bring a pan of water to the boil. tail but don't top the French beans and blanch for 2 minutes. Fish them out with tongs and refresh under cold water to keep the crunch.
  2. In the same water cook the peas for 2 minutes. Strain and refresh under cold water.
  3. Heat the grill and toast the hazelnuts for about 5 minutes or until brown. Toasting them for this long will mean the skin comes off easily and they will have an extra-nutty flavour. Cool and rub with a clean tea towel to remove skins and then roughly chop.
  4. Put the beans, peas and hazelnuts in a bowl. Add the zest, garlic and chives, then pour over 2 tbsp olive oil. Mix and season.

    The mix of hazelnuts and beans goes surprisingly well together.
