I’m always looking for new ways with runner beans as we have a glut on the veg patch from July to September.

This side dish would go well with fish

2 tbsp groundnut oil

1 tsp black mustard seeds

10 fresh curry leaves (optional)

2 red chilli, thinly sliced

1 tbsp grated ginger

1 garlic clove, grated

1/4 tsp turmeric

500g runner beans, finely shredded

In a large frying pan over a medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds and lightly crushed cumin seeds and stir for 1-2 minutes or until they start popping. Be careful not to let them burn.

Lower the heat a little and add the curry leaves, sliced chilli, turmeric, ginger and garlic and cook for 1 minutes stirring all the time. add the beans a splash of water and stir fry for 4-5 minutes. Sprinkle with some coriander and serve.
