Green Beans Hellinika

11 ingredients
4 steps

Ingredients

  • 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

Directions

  1. 1
    Clean and de-stem green beans. Leave whole or cut to bite size pieces if you prefer.
  2. 2
    (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.).
  3. 3
    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).
  4. 4
    Cover and cook until tender, stirring frequently, about 20 minutes.
