TURKISH-STYLE BRAISED GREEN BEANS



Turkish-Style Braised Green Beans image

In this Turkish method, vegetables (and sometimes beans) are cooked in plenty of olive oil - usually with tomatoes, onions and one or two other ingredients - until they have almost lost their shape. Then they are cooled and served at room temperature, when their flavors are at their fullest. Very often an herb or citrus juice is added just before serving for a little spark; thick yogurt and lemon wedges are standard accompaniments. It's probably obvious that these dishes are pretty much ideal for warm-weather meals. They not only can be made in advance, but also must be, so they can cool down. Even a day or two ahead is fine; just take them out of the refrigerator about 45 minutes before serving.

TURKISH STYLE BRAISED GREEN BEANS



Turkish Style Braised Green Beans image

This type of dish is traditionally served as a side dish after the main meat entree. You could also serve several similar dishes at once with some crusty bread or pita to sop up the sauces. Vegetables that are cooked by this method are rich and lush and delicate all at once. They are very different than vegetables boiled in water.
