GREEK ROASTED BEANS IN TOMATO SAUCE - GIGANTES PLAKI



Greek Roasted Beans in Tomato Sauce - Gigantes Plaki image

From the Greek food/ nutrition blog Olivetomato. Prep time does not include soaking the beans overnight. I've guessed on the # of servings

Provided by momaphet

Categories     Beans

Time 2h25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb gigantes or butter beans (soak them in water overnight)
2 tomatoes, grated (or diced, or canned crushed tomatoes)
4 garlic cloves, peeled
2 onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons tomato paste, mixed with a bit of water
3/4 cup olive oil
parsley
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Soak the beans overnight, the longer, the better.
  • Preheat oven at 350 Farenheit (180 degrees Celsius).
  • Drain and rinse the beans and boil in water for about 40 minutes to an hour, until they are soft but not mushy. Make sure you boil them enough; otherwise the beans will be too hard to eat even after baking.
  • Sauce - Sauté the onion in a bit of olive on low heat until soft and add the garlic cloves whole. If you want a stronger garlic flavor you can mince the garlic.
  • Add the tomato (you can use cherry tomatoes cut in thin slices, but the traditional way is grating the tomato), the tomato paste, parsley, salt and pepper to taste and about ¼ cup olive oil. Let it simmer until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
  • Once the beans have boiled, drain them and put them back into the pot, add the sauce and mix gently. Pour the mixture in a pan and spread evenly and then pour about another ¼ cup olive oil over the beans and bake for about 50 minutes until beans are tender.
  • Accompany with feta cheese and bread.
