The secret to this recipe's rich, nutty flavor is the browned butter. Watch the butter carefully as it cooks to make sure it doesn't burn. If you can't find slim, delicate haricots verts, substitute green beans and cook them for an extra minute or two. You can also substitute fresh mint for the oregano for a different flavor.
