TOMATO-MARINATED GREENS AND BEANS TOAST



Tomato-Marinated Greens and Beans Toast image

This fresh, no-cook dish makes the most out of tomatoes by grating the flesh, which preserves all of the sweet juices and raw pulp. The natural acidity in the tomato juice, combined with capers and vinegar, create a piquant sauce that tenderizes and subdues sturdy greens. Earthy Swiss chard is used here, but other leafy greens like lacinato kale would work, as would spicy mustard greens. The lentils add a meaty bite, but red kidney beans or chickpeas would also work. Refrigerate leftovers and serve over eggs, tossed with warm pasta or as a sauce for roasted chicken or fish.

STEWED GREEN BEANS AND TOMATOES WITH TRAHANA



Stewed Green Beans and Tomatoes With Trahana image

The stewed green beans with tomatoes are typical of many Greek "olive oil dishes," or "ladera," though my version has about a quarter of the olive oil used in a traditional dish. I have bulked it up by adding trahana to the mix, which turns it into a stew that is suitable as a main dish. It is delicious hot or at room temperature.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 1h

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 pound fresh green beans, ends trimmed
1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes, or 1 1/2 cups grated fresh tomatoes
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon sugar (to taste)
Salt to taste
2/3 cups sour bulgur trahana
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, parsley, or dill
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (optional)
Additional olive oil as desired

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a wide, covered skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat and add onion. Cook, stirring, until tender and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for another 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. Stir in tomatoes, sugar and salt to taste and cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have cooked down slightly, about 5 minutes. Add green beans and remaining oil and stir together for a minute, then add about 1 1/2 cups water, or enough to just cover the beans. Bring to a simmer, add more salt to taste, cover, reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes, until beans are very tender.
  • Check water level and if necessary add water so that beans are covered. When it begins to simmer, stir in trahana and half the herbs. Cover and simmer, stirring often, until trahana is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in remaining herbs, add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt. Add lemon juice and more olive oil if desired. Serve hot or at room temperature (traditionally this is allowed to cool and served at room temperature).

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. For the best flavor and texture, use green beans that are young and have a vibrant green color. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Blanch the green beans before tossing them in the vinaigrette. This will help to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes. For a more complex flavor, use a combination of different types of tomatoes, such as cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes. You can also use canned diced tomatoes if fresh tomatoes are not available.
  • Add some herbs and spices to the vinaigrette. To enhance the flavor of the vinaigrette, add some fresh herbs, such as oregano, basil, or thyme. You can also add some spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can prepare the vinaigrette and chop the vegetables up to 24 hours in advance. Just assemble the salad and toss it with the vinaigrette just before serving.

Conclusion:

Chilean Tossed Green Beans and Tomatoes is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for summer gatherings. The bright and tangy flavors of the tomatoes and vinaigrette complement the crisp green beans perfectly. This salad is also very easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. So next time you are looking for a light and refreshing salad, give Chilean Tossed Green Beans and Tomatoes a try.
