Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 cups mixed greens, such as kale, chard, beet, or escarole
Salt to taste
3 large garlic cloves
1 cup finely chopped Italian parsley
1 cup finely chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons hot or sweet paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3 tablespoons fruity olive oil
Garnish: green or oilcured Moroccan olives, lemon wedges, and tomato (optional

Steps:

  • Discard any inedible parts of the greens, such as kale stems and tough ribs. Plunge the leaves into boiling salted water and cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain, then chop into small pieces.
  • Pound the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mortar until you have a rough paste, then work in the parsley and cilantro and pound them briefly to release their flavors. Add the paprika and cumin. (If you do not have a mortar and pestle, chop the garlic with the parsley and cilantro, then add the spices.)
  • Warm the oil in a wide skillet over medium heat with the garlicherb mixture. As soon as it releases its flavor, when the oil has heated, add the greens. Cook, stirring frequently, until any extra moisture has evaporated. Taste for salt. Pile into a dish and garnish with the olives, lemon, and tomato wedges.

I had these beans at a dinner party. I'm so glad the hostess was willing to share the recipe. A very unique and different way to serve fresh green beans.

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Tomatoes

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes including juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 pinch white sugar, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of lightly-salted water to a boil; stir in the green beans and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, and cook the green beans until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion, 1 clove of garlic, and parsley in the hot oil until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, wine vinegar, and cumin; bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 minutes to thicken the sauce. Transfer the sauce to a bowl.
  • In a clean skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-low heat; cook and stir 1 clove of chopped garlic in the hot oil until fragrant beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Return the cooked green beans to the skillet; cook and stir to reheat the beans and coat them with oil. Pour the sauce over the beans and stir to coat. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet or pot to cook the greens so that they have plenty of room to wilt.
  • Add a little bit of liquid to the skillet to help the greens cook evenly. Water, broth, or even wine can be used.
  • Season the greens with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Cook the greens until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
  • Serve the greens immediately with your favorite sides.
