Serves 4-6

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 25 minutes

Ingredients: 

• 400-500g green beans
• 100g button/cremini mushrooms
• 4 tbsp Hakka-ish Chili Crisp
• 2 tbsp all purpose flour
• 2 tbsp cooking oil/butter
• Salt, to taste
• 250ml half & half cream
• 50g crackers/breadcrumbs
• 50g mature cheddar cheese

Method: 

1. Slice the mushrooms, and remove the stem end of the green beans. 
2. Heat a pan over a medium-high heat. Add the oil or butter, and then the mushrooms. Cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently, and then add the flour. Cook for a further 2 minutes, and then add the cream slowly while stirring to prevent lumps from being formed. 
3. Bring to a boil, and add the green beans. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until just starting to soften. Add a sprinkle of salt to taste. 
4. While the green beans cook, make the breading. If using crackers, crush in a bag until they’re similar in consistency to breadcrumbs. Grate the cheese, and add to the breading, and then add half of the Hakka-ish. 
5. Sprinkle the breading over the green beans, and place under a preheated broiler, or in an oven preheated to 430f. Cook for a few minutes until the breading is bubbling, and golden brown. 
6. Serve, topped with the remaining Hakka-ish
