Ejotes Habichuelas Verdes Con Mayonesa Al Ajo Recipes

EJOTES CON HUEVO (GREEN BEANS AND EGGS)

Steps:

• Place green beans in a pot with enough water to cover them for 1.5-inch (3-4cm) and add salt.
• Bring the water to a boil and cook the beans for 5 minutes.
• Drain the green beans and place them in a bowl. Set aside.
• Place tomatoes, onion, chili peppers, and garlic in a blender.
• Add 1 cup of water and blend until you will have a smooth sauce.
• Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
• Add the tomato sauce and season with cumin, salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes.
• Add the green beans, mix and let everything cook for about 3 minutes.
• Crack the eggs in a bowl and lightly whisk them.
• Add eggs to the pan with beans but not mix, let everything set for half a minute then gently mix the ingredients.
• Continue cooking, stirring from time to time until the eggs are fully cooked.
• Adjust seasonings to taste and then serve.

STRING BEANS LATINO STYLE, EJOTES O HABICHUELAS GUISADAS

Steps:

• First wash and cut off end of the string beans. Next cut each bean in three pieces. Set aside. Next in a heavy pot over medium to high heat begin to render down the bacon. When the bacon has fried some but has not crisped add the onions, garlic, cilantro and jalapenos. Saute in the bacon fat until the onions become limp. Now add the wine, deglaze and continue to saute for one minute.
• Next add the mashed down tomatos and all of the juice from the can. Stir well and now add the seasonings, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper and the beef or chicken broth. Lower the heat to low, cover with a tight lid and let simmer until the string beans are tender. Just before serving take about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of mashed potatoes and stir into the beans dissolving all the potatoes into the sauce. You may taste now again to see if the beans have enough salt or heat. I sometimes add a little cayanne pepper (Optional) as I like the beans spicy with a little heat. I like to serve along side grilled meats or chicken.
• I also like to serve a nice large spoonful in a hot tortilla with a dollop of the Mexican Crema or sour cream. Enjoy

HABICHUELAS GUISADAS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add tomato sauce, sofrito, sazon, and pepper. Cook, stirring for about 3 minutes. Stir in beans, water, and salt. Increase heat to medium, and cook for 15 minutes, or until sauce has thickened.
