Preparation

  1. STEP 1 OF 7

    Heat a non-stick pan (or line a baking sheet with parchment paper) and spread 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan Reggiano for each basket, forming discs about 12 cm in diameter.

  2. STEP 2 OF 7

    Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is golden and melted.

  3. STEP 3 OF 7

    Using a spatula, gently lift the disc and place it over an inverted cup, shaping it into a basket. Let it cool and solidify.

  4. STEP 4 OF 7

    Boil the green beans in salted boiling water for 7 minutes, then drain and cool them in ice water. Cut them into pieces.

  5. STEP 5 OF 7

    Cut the avocado into cubes and the olives into slices. Coarsely chop the walnuts and parsley.

  6. STEP 6 OF 7

    In a bowl, combine green beans, avocado, olives, walnuts, and parsley. Season with oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

  7. STEP 7 OF 7

    When ready to serve, fill each Parmesan basket with the vegetable and walnut mix.
