Runner Beans with Creme Fraiche

Not yet tried out but coud be a winner for the forthcoming runner bean glut! It's an adaptation of a recipe on www.riverford.co.uk where I've made it a bit less calorific. Not hugely healthy - but 2.6 veg portions!

2 big portions

400g Beans, Runner, Average
125ml Creme Fraiche, Half Fat
50g Bread Crumbs
25g Clover spread (or butter)
¼ Tbsp Caraway Seeds
¼ Tsp Grated Nutmeg

Method
1. Prepare the beans and boil or steam them until just tender. Drain thoroughly.
2. Mix creme fraiche with the nutmeg, caraway seeds, and seasoning.
3. Add the beans and toss well together.
4. Grease a 1 litre ovenproof dish with the spread/butter and spoon in the beans.
5. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.
6. Bake at 180°C, gas mark 4, for 30 minutes or until the topping is crisp and golden.
