FASOLAKIA (GREEK GREEN BEANS)



Fasolakia (Greek Green Beans) image

Fasolakia are Greek green beans stewed with olive oil and tomato, with a few pieces of potato added for good measure. This is a main dish in Greece, not a side dish, and a prime example of plant-based eating! Good crusty bread is essential for mopping up the sauce and I always need to have a healthy chunk of feta on the side. Serve fasolakia warm or at room temperature for best flavor.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup olive oil
1 small onion, grated
1 ½ pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
4 tomatoes, pureed
2 yellow potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch white sugar
water to cover

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and stir in onion. Cook until onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Add green beans and stir to coat in the oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Add pureed tomato, potatoes, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stir well, then add water until beans are barely covered.
  • Bring to a simmer, partially cover with a lid, and cook gently over medium-low heat until green beans and potatoes are soft, 25 to 30 minutes. Uncover towards the end of cooking to reduce sauce if it is too watery.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs fresh green beans or 2 lbs other long string beans
2 cups tomatoes, peeled and finely chopped
2 onions, finely chopped
1 cup olive oil
1 green pepper, thinly sliced
1 bunch fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 -3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 cup water
sea salt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Wash the beans, cut off the tips and remove the stringy piece of fiber along the seam. Rinse the beans.
  • In a soup pot, sauté the onions in olive oil with a wooden spoon until they turn translucent.
  • Stir in the garlic and sauté a few minutes more. Add all the remaining ingredients and the water. Stir well, reduce heat, and simmer covered for 50 minutes or until the beans are tender. (Add more water if needed during cooking - boiling water.).
  • Serve warm. On the side, consider tzatziki or feta cheese, and certainly some great country bread.
  • Note: This serves 4 as a main dish, 6-8 as a side. For a more substantial dish, add 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks.
