  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable stock

  • 2/3 lb green beans, trimmed and cut in half
  • 1/2 lb mushrooms, halved

Directions

  1. 1
    For the marinade: Bring the garlic, fresh herbs, peppercorns, sugar and vegetable stock to a boil. Remove from heat, cover and let the stock stand for about 10 mins.
  2. 2
    Cook the onions, peppers and beans in the marinade for 10-15 mins until they're al dente. Remove the vegetables with a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl. Cook the rest of the vegetables for 8-10 mins over a medium heat, then remove them and put them in the bowl with the onions, peppers and beans. Pour the hot marinade through a strainer over the vegetables. Add the olive oil and lemon juice. Season to taste. Leave to cool, cover and chill in the fridge overnight. Drain and serve. The vegetables are a good accompaniment to grilled lamb chops. The marinated vegetables will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days.
