Ingredients

• 350 grams green beans
• 1 medium onion
• 2 units garlic cloves
• 80 grams walnuts
• 50 grams sunflower seeds
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional)
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the green beans under cold water, trim the ends, and cut them into 2-inch pieces.

Step 2

Bring a pot of water to boil and add the green beans. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until tender but not mushy. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic cloves.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent.

Step 5

Add the garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 6

Reduce heat to low and stir in the cooked green beans. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring to combine the flavors. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 7

In a food processor, combine the cooked green beans, onion, garlic, walnuts, sunflower seeds, soy sauce, paprika, pepper, parsley (if using), and 2 tablespoons of water.

Step 8

Pulse the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Adjust seasoning to taste with additional soy sauce or pepper, if desired.

Step 9

Transfer the mock pâté to a serving dish and drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil for extra richness.

Step 10

Serve with crackers, bread, or fresh vegetables, or use it as a spread for sandwiches.
