Steps:
- Tear off and discard tips of each green bean. If there are "strings" along the side, strip them off and discard them. Break beans in half or in quarters.
- Bring enough water to a boil to cover beans when they are added. Drop beans into the water and when water returns to the boil let cook 8 to 9 minutes until crisp tender. Drain thoroughly.
- Pour beans into container of a food processor or electric blender and blend until coarsely processed. There should be about two cups.
- Heat butter in a saucepan and add bean puree. Add cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Heat, stirring, until piping hot.
- Meanwhile, preheat broiler to high.
- Spoon green bean mixture into a shallow round or oval baking dish and cover evenly with cheese. Place under broiler and cook until cheese is thoroughly melted and nicely browned on top, 3 to 5 minutes.
