Ingredients

For 1 serving

  • Edamame150 g
  • Saltto taste
  • Lemon zestto taste

Contains: soy

Method

  1. Bring a couple of centimetres of water to the boil in a pan that a steamer basket can sit on.
  2. Put the edamame in the basket, cover and steam over medium heat for 5 minutes, until the pods are bright green and the beans tender to the bite.
  3. Meanwhile wash the lemon and grate the zest, yellow part only.
  4. Tip the edamame into a bowl and season them straight away with salt, ideally coarse: it sticks to the still-damp pods.
  5. Finish with the lemon zest and serve hot; you eat them by squeezing the beans out of the pods with your teeth.
