Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 15 minutes mins
Total Time 30 minutes mins
Servings 2
- 1.25 pounds string beans ends trimmed
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 small shallot minced
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 turnips peeled, Blade B
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
- 1/2 cup cooked edamame beans
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese to garnish
Bring a medium pot filled halfway with water to a boil. Once boiling, add in the string beans and cook for about 5 minutes or until the beans are string-tender. Drain into a colander and set aside.
Once water starts boiling, place a large skillet over medium heat and add in the olive oil. Once oil heats, add in the garlic, shallots and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 minutes or until shallots are translucent.
Add in the turnip noodles and toss thoroughly to combine. Season with salt and pepper and cover, cooking for 5 minutes or until turnip noodles are al dente, uncovering occasionally to toss. Once cooked, add in the lemon zest, string beans and edamame and toss. Let cook for 2 minutes to let the edamame warm and flavors combine.
Divide pasta into bowls, garnish with parmesan and serve.
