Nice green beans, good combination of ingredients. The fresh basil leaves were not in the instructions, to say when to add them, so I added them near the end of cooking, they really didn't add to the taste, so perhaps I should have added them at the begining so the taste would get cooked in. They were quite mild and I think next time I would add some spices to give them a little kick. Thanks for sharing.
