Categories Entree

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

Greek extra virgin olive oil (I used Private Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil)
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
1 28-oz can peeled whole tomato
1 cup water
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 lb fresh French green beans, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces (frozen green beans work wonderfully in this recipe)
3 Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1 lb), cut into small piece (1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces)
Salt and black pepper
lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
In a large Dutch Oven, heat 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until tender, stirring occasionally (about 5 mins). Then add the garlic, cumin, and oregano. Cook another 2 mins, stirring regularly, until fragrant.
Add tomatoes, water, bay leaf, beans, and potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Raise the heat and bring to a high simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cover and transfer to the heated oven. Cook until the sauce slightly thickens, and the beans and potatoes can easily be cut with side of your fork; about 35 minutes or so. (It's a good idea to check once partway through cooking, add a little bit of water if needed.)
Remove from oven and stir in 2 tbsp lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley. Stir in a generous drizzle of olive oil (at least another 1/4 cup).
Serve immediately with Greek pita bread or your favorite rustic bread to sop up the sauce!

FASOLAKIA

Fasolakia image

Vegan and gluten-free, fasolakia is a stew of tender green beans in tomato sauce and olive oil, that is a traditional part of Greek cuisine.

Provided by Renards Gourmets

Categories Side Dish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

2 lb fresh green beans (, topped and tailed (or use frozen))
1 large onion (, chopped)
2 large potatoes (, peeled and cut into 6)
2 cloves garlic (, chopped)
5 tomatoes (, peeled, de-seeded, and chopped)
½ teaspoon sugar
1 bunch parsley (, chopped)
1 tablespoon chopped dill
2 fresh mint leaves (, chopped)
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Hot water

Steps:

Heat a little more than half of the oil in a pan and sauté the potatoes, garlic and onion for a few minutes over medium heat, stirring regularly.
Add the green beans, tomatoes, sugar and about 1¼ cup (300 ml) of water or just enough water to barely cover the green beans. Season with salt and pepper.
Cover and cook over medium to high heat for 15 minutes.
Reduce the heat and cook for 15 minutes over low to medium heat, until the green beans are tender.
Uncover and add the parsley, dill, mint and remaining olive oil. Mix and cook for 3 minutes.
At the end of cooking, if there is too much liquid, increase the heat for a few minutes and reduce the sauce, stirring gently so as not to crush the green beans and potatoes.
Serve with bread and feta cheese on the side.

To prepare this traditional Greek green beans recipe, start by washing thoroughly the green beans. Drain them in a colander and set aside.
Heat half the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until transculent and tender. Stir in the garlic, the grated tomatoes, the rest of the olive oil and a pinch of sugar and bring to the boil. The traditional recipe for Greek green beans calls for fresh ripe tomatoes, but if you like you can substitute with canned chopped tomatoes, or Passata tomato juice.
Add the green beans and blend well, so that the green beans are coated with the olive oil and the tomatoes. Turn the heat down, cover with the lid and simmer for 40- 45 minutes, until the beans are soft and most the juices have evaporated. During cooking, check out if the pan appears to be getting dry and add a little bit hot water if needed.
