Green Beans With Lemon Cardamom Glaze

I love this bean recipe it looks good and tastes very good! I love beans still quite crisp but if you like them well done it's your call! the touch of cardamom gives a slightly mysterious flavor hint. For a vegetarian version use vegetable stock

Steps

Combine the stock , lemon juice , lemon zest& ginger in a saucepan.
Bring to a boil and continue boiling until reduced to apprx 1 / 3 cup.
Stir in the pepper corns , cardamom& salt , set aside.
Meanwhile steam the beans until tender crisp apprx 7 minutes or you may place them in boiling water for apprs 5 minutes- do not over cook they should still be crisp and bright green.
Chop the 1 / 2 lemon quite fine.
Heat the glaze so it is piping hot just as the beans are finished cooking.
Drain the beans , place on heated serving platter.
Pour glaze over the beans& scatter the chopped lemon on top.
