STRING BEANS AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel the potato and cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Pour enough cold water over the potato in a large saucepan to cover by 3 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, lower the heat slightly to a gentle boil, and cook 8 minutes. Stir in the string beans and continue cooking until both vegetables are tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Drain the vegetables well in a colander. Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Scatter the garlic over the oil. Cook, shaking the pan, until golden, about 1 minute. Slide the drained vegetables into the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring and mashing the potatoes to the desired consistency as you do. Drizzle additional olive oil into the vegetables and mix just before serving.
• Think of the above recipe as a master recipe. You can use other types of potato in place of the Idaho or Yukon Gold, and a host of other "add-in" vegetables in place of the string beans. Whatever potato or add-in vegetable you choose, the technique is simple: Peel and cut the potatoes and put them on to cook. Then add the cleaned and cut add-in vegetable, timing it so both vegetables are cooked at the same time. (The proportions, generally speaking, should be around 60 percent vegetable and 40 percent potato, but you can vary that depending on preference or need.) The vegetables are then well drained and sautéed with garlic and olive oil, the vegetables mashed roughly as they're cooking. (Again, based on your preference, you can mash the vegetables smooth or not so smooth.)
• The add-in vegetables that lend themselves best to this preparation are Swiss chard, Savoy cabbage, white cabbage, and spinach. Prepare any of these choices according to the directions that follow the Swiss Chard Braised with Oil and Garlic on page 322 and substitute them for the string beans.
• Judge when to stir in the add-in vegetable based on the timing guidelines below. (If you find you misjudged the cooking time and one vegetable is tender before the other, simply fish the tender vegetable out of the pot, set it aside, and return it to the pot when the second vegetable is tender.)
• New Potatoes: You can choose to peel or not peel new potatoes, depending on your preference. Choose small new potatoes, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Cut any potatoes larger than that in half. New potatoes of this size will take about 25 minutes of boiling to become tender.
• Savoy Cabbage, Green Cabbage, Spinach, or Swiss Chard: See the directions for preparing these ingredients that follow the recipe for Swiss Chard Braised with Oil and Garlic on page 322. Add cabbage or chard to the pot about 5 minutes after the potato has been cooking, and the spinach about 10 minutes after the potato has been cooking.
