Instructions
  1. Roast the garlic bulbs in a hot oven until they are soft when you squeeze them. Allow to cool to a handleable temperature, then squeeze the flesh out of the cloves. Toss the shallots in a little olive oil on the heat, then place in the oven to roast, keeping a close eye on them and tossing regularly until soft and sweet. Keep warm.
  2. Put a pan of well-salted water on to boil. Mix the anchovies with the garlic flesh, capers, parsley and pepper. Add a splash of extra-virgin olive oil and the vinegar.
  3. When the water is boiling, put the beans in and boil for 4 minutes. Check they are to your liking, drain, then mix them in a warm bowl with the shallots and anchovy dressing.
  4. Serve straight away with lamb chops (which hopefully you have not forgotten to cook while doing all the above).
