Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 packages frozen French-cut green beans , 16 ounce
- 1 cup sour cream

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add flour and stir slowly until it forms a smooth paste. Quickly stir in green beans, sour cream, salt, and sugar before the flour paste becomes too thick or overcooked. Continue to cook and stir occasionally over medium heat until green beans have thawed and started to cook, 7 to 10 minutes.
