INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the beans from the pods. Bring a pot of water to a boil, add
salt, and drop in the beans. Boil for 30 seconds (no longer), drain,
and transfer to a bowl of cold water. Using your thumbnail to slit the
outer skins, pop out the beans and set aside. Heat the oil in a
casserole or covered skillet and saute the onion over medium-low heat
for 5 minutes or until tender. Add the garlic, beans, and lettuce,
cover and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Add the wine, cover,
and cook 10 minutes or until the beans are tender. Season to taste
with salt and pepper and serve. [email protected] (PAT GOLD)
