Italian Green Beans
Food & Cooking Tips
Ethnic
green bean recipes.
This recipe comes courtesy of The Complete Mediterranean, The Beautiful
Cookbook. There are several variations of this recipe. Another Tuscan
variation of this recipe calls for the addition of one teaspoon of fresh
marjoram, which we'd suggest you add right at the end of cooking for the
freshest flavor. For a Lebanese flair you can use tomato paste in place
of the chopped plum tomatoes and add parsley, mint, dill or oregano to
taste.
Italian Green Beans
Fagiolini Di Sant' Anna (St. Anna Beans)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 lbs. green beans (Chinese long beans if you can get them)
10 oz. plum tomatoes, peeled and chopped
Salt, pepper
In a large skillet over low heat warm the olive oil. Add the garlic and
fry gently until translucent, about 3 minutes. (don't let the garlic burn.
If it does, start over, burned garlic will ruin any dish) Add the green
beans and tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Lower the heat and cook
approximately 15 minutes, until the beans are tender.
