Loubia (Algerian-Style Green Beans)

Green beans are one of my favorite vegetables. I hated them growing up because we only ate canned. Nothing worse than soggy green beans. Loubia are the Algerian twist on green beans; sautéed with garlic, cumin, paprika, a little bit of cloves, and slivered almonds. Ready in just a couple of minutes, they’re the perfect accompaniment to any meal.
