Preparation
-
1) Fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, bring to a boil, then add the green beans and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes or until tender crisp. Drain and shock the green beans in ice water to stop them from cooking any further, drain well and set them aside.
2) To make the dressing, in a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, basil, garlic, honey, salt and pepper and slowly, while whisking, add the oil and whisk until well combined.
3) Add all the salad ingredients in a large bowl, give everything a season with a pinch of salt, then drizzle over the dressing and toss well. Top with the toasted hazelnuts and dig right in!
