Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
  2. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, add 2 tablespoons of salt, and blanch the green beans for 5 minutes. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water, then drain and pat dry.

  3. In a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook until golden brown. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook until softened. Add the flour and stir to coat the mushrooms and shallots.
