I would call these flat beans runner beans. They also look like an Italian one that they call Romano beans. The other green beans are narrower and need their ends trimmed off. I just refer to them as green beans apart from the French green beans (Haricot Vert) which are narrower and more tender. The other one you referred to that you have to pod I call broad beans. Usually I skin the bean itself as well as the skin can be tough.Leftover nettle/egg stuff in chicory leaves, again with beans and halloumi.
I topped my chicory boats with some extra mayo to make it taste a little less 'healthy' and added smoked paprika mainly to make it look pretty
I still have some beans left, and half a pack of halloumi, so I'll need to think of what to have with that tomorrow.
Can someone tell me the proper name for these beans, and for the other (shorter, round and darker green) green coloured beans? Or do they interchangeably go by the names green beans or string beans?
Meant to say, a nice easy recipe for the just green beans (haricot vert or otherwise) is cook them to whatever texture you like. Dot an ovenproof dish with bits of butter, put the beans in and scatter grated Cheddar over the top. Season with salt if required and cayenne pepper for a bit of heat. Add some cream on top (not lots). Mix then add more cheese on top, few more dots of butter and put in the oven for 20 mins.
I have a feeling this recipe will be perfect for about every vegetable!

I have no idea how to do it on the app, but perhaps @searley knows, he uses the app

I feel a lot better now, just have wait it out till I get the results in a couple of weeks and have to do it all again for the problem to be fixed.
Its not the best food I have had in a private hospital, but they made up in quantity than what you get in a public hospital for breakfast.
French style peas is another one that chopped, fried pancetta goes well with. I think it's a Jamie Oliver recipe (although I do have a little recipe book of nothing but peas so it might be that).
@Annb (and Antje77 - possibly one you can use) - it was a Jamie Oliver recipe but, as usual, I changed it. Here's the main recipe. All I did with this was exclude the flour ( I just reduced the stock,) However, I did fry off chopped pancetta which I added at the end AND I also put shaved parmesan on it before serving. You're right Ann, it is delicious although I'd forgotten about it until you mentioned it.
