Zeytinyağlı Taze Fasulye

Fresh Green Beans & Tomato Dish 

• 1 lb. Fresh Green Beans
• ¼ c. Olive Oil
• 1 Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, sliced
• 2 Tomatoes, grated
• ½ tsp. Salt
• ¼ tsp. Black Pepper
• ½ tsp. Sugar

1. Wash & clean Green Beans, cutting into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
2. Heat Olive Oil in a frying pan and begin to sauté Onions.
3. Add prepped Green Beans and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Add grated Tomatoes and sliced Garlic, cover with a lid and cook for 10 minutes. (You may need to add a bit of water, but no more than ¼ cup.)
5. Uncover to stir and add Salt, Pepper & Sugar. Cover and continue cooking until tender but not mushy. (About 15-20 minutes, depending on bean size and your preference.)
6. After removing from heat Turks set this dish aside to cool before serving. I also like it fresh and hot. Either way makes a delicious side dish!
