Polish Sweet-Sour Stewed Green Beans

Tender cut green beans in a browned butter-flour sauce with vinegar, brown sugar, cinnamon and cloves.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Boil trimmed broken green beans in lightly salted water until just tender, about 8–12 minutes. Drain, keeping at least 300 mL of the green bean cooking liquid.

  2. Step 2

    Melt butter in a wide saucepan, stir in flour and cook until light brown. Whisk in 300 mL reserved bean liquid gradually, then vinegar, brown sugar, cinnamon and whole cloves. Bring to a full boil until lightly thickened.

  3. Step 3

    Add the cooked beans and simmer for the source's ten minutes. Remove cloves, taste the deliberately sharp sauce and adjust salt, without hiding the source vinegar amount.

  4. Step 4

    Serve hot as a vegetable side. Beef pot roast, if available, is a separate accompanying dish and is not required to complete these beans.
