Green String Beans A.K.A Fasolakia Yiahnnee
- 1 1/2 pounds frozen string beans or fresh
- 1 large tomato
- 1 onion large
- 3 garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons parsley optional
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar optional
- 1/2 teaspoon cinammon optional
- 2 carrots
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Chop up your garlic,tomato , carrots and onions. Saute for about 10 minutes add your fresh or froezen string beans. I used frozen string beans, they cook faster than the fresh ones.
- At this point if you like the parsley you add it, of course chopped up.
- Saute for another 10 minutes add oregano, salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover with water, boil at high for 30 minutes.
- When they start to simmer add your tomato paste and if you like add the cinammon and sugar. I prefer it like this. Or, if you don't like it with tomato paste, omit it and add lemon. Either way they taste delicious and they are very healthy.
- Serve with whole wheat bread,olives and feta cheese.
- KALE OREXI !!!! nnIf you like my recipes follow me on my blog or my social media.
