A wonderful, easy way to cook green beans. This recipe was passed along to me when I attended a Greek Orthodox Church in Boston. Delicious!

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs fresh green beans
1 onion, chopped
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon dried mint (optional)
1 teaspoon fennel seed (optional)
1 minced garlic clove
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 cups water or 3 cups vegetable broth

Steps:

  • Clean and de-stem green beans. Leave whole or cut to bite size pieces if you prefer.
  • (If you prefer your green beans more on the crispy side, saute the onion and garlic in 2 Tbsp of the olive oil before the next step.).
  • Put all ingredients into stock pot. Add only enough water or stock to keep beans from sticking. (I have made these with chicken stock as well).
  • Cover and cook until tender, stirring frequently, about 20 minutes.

FASOLAKIA (GREEK GREEN BEANS)



Fasolakia (Greek Green Beans) image

Fasolakia are Greek green beans stewed with olive oil and tomato, with a few pieces of potato added for good measure. This is a main dish in Greece, not a side dish, and a prime example of plant-based eating! Good crusty bread is essential for mopping up the sauce and I always need to have a healthy chunk of feta on the side. Serve fasolakia warm or at room temperature for best flavor.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup olive oil
1 small onion, grated
1 ½ pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
4 tomatoes, pureed
2 yellow potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch white sugar
water to cover

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and stir in onion. Cook until onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Add green beans and stir to coat in the oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Add pureed tomato, potatoes, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stir well, then add water until beans are barely covered.
  • Bring to a simmer, partially cover with a lid, and cook gently over medium-low heat until green beans and potatoes are soft, 25 to 30 minutes. Uncover towards the end of cooking to reduce sauce if it is too watery.
