Craisins® Original Dried Cranberries
Steps
If using fresh green beans, cook in salted boiling water for 3 to 4 minutes or until just tender. Drain; rinse in cold water. Combine onion, water and salt in large skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until water evaporates. Add beans, garlic, butter, cumin and curry powder; stir to coat beans. Stir in dried cranberries, sherry, juice cocktail and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook for 5 to 10 minutes or until liquid evaporates and mixture is heated through. Sprinkle with almonds. Makes 6 servings. *If desired, lightly toast cumin seed in small skillet and pound with mortar and pestle to bring out flavor. **To toast almonds, cook in small nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 5 to 6 minutes or until golden brown and fragrant. Toasted salted Marcona almonds can be substituted. 2009 Ultimate Cranberry Recipe Contest Finalist Kara Adanalian Fresno, CA
