Autumn’s here. Despite the cool summer we had this year, I’m glad to say that all our vegetables were quite productive (besides the tomatoes and paprikas). I’ve just harvested almost the last batch of runner beans, the last batch of haricot verts and a big carrot. I made another favourite of ours – stirfried beans with eggs served with tomato ketchup on rice.. yummssss.. 🙂

Ingredients:

  • 300g runner beans, cut into small pieces
  • 80-90g haricot verts, sliced into 3 per haricot
  • 90g carrots, cut into small pieces
  • 250 g bacon pieces, optional
  • 1 onion, cut into 2, sliced roughly
  • 1 tsp chopped garlic
  • 5 eggs
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1-2 tsp salt, to taste
