Fine bean

My first bean from my garden. I bit off the end to see how it tasted but it was awful.

Ps. The recipe is from the Guardian food supplement. I find all the recipes in there laughable because they all seem to have ingredients in there that are simply unavailable and most of the time I don't even recognise what they are. Thai Holy Basil sounds like a religious person from Thailand. Kecap manis is Indonesian sweet soy sauce. They certainly don't sell that in Lidl.
