METHOD
Remove the ends of the beans. In a pan, cover with water and add the salt and bay leaf. Cook for 5–8 minutes over medium heat until al dente, then drain in a colander, blanch in cold water, and drain.
In a pan, heat the oil and sauté the beans over high heat until golden brown; continue to cook over medium heat until golden brown. Turn off the heat. Pour the vinegar over the beans. Garlic, peeled and crushed, should be sprinkled over the beans. Mix everything together thoroughly and set aside to infuse slightly. Finally, season with sea salt and pepper to taste. This dish pairs well with some crunchy fresh bread.
