Ingredients

1 small garlic bulb

500g green beans, trimmed

1/3 cup flaked almonds

200g cherry tomatoes, halved

Roast Garlic Dressing

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

1 teaspoon honey

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

1 tablespoon water

Sea-salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper, to season

Method

Step 1

Preheat air fryer to 180°C for 5 minutes. Cut the tip off the garlic bulb, leaving whole. Add beans and garlic to the air fryer and fry for 10–12 minutes, shaking halfway, until cooked. Transfer beans to a large bowl with cherry tomatoes (leaving garlic in air fryer).

Step 2

Add almonds with the garlic and air-fry for 3 minutes or until golden. Set aside.

Step 3

To make the dressing, squeeze cooked garlic cloves into a small food processor and add remaining ingredients. Process until smooth and creamy. Season.

Step 4

Transfer bean mixture to a plate, top with almonds and drizzle with dressing to coat (see tip).
