Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 small new potatoes, halved if large
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 slices bacon, cut into thirds
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 pounds fresh green beans, ends trimmed

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan or medium Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until it has rendered most of its fat and has begun to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the green beans and potatoes and enough water to just cover them. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then cover the pan and simmer until the beans are very tender, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally and adding more water if necessary to keep the beans covered. As the beans get close to being done they will become quite fragile, so take care when stirring.

Slow Cooker Green Beans, Ham and Potatoes image

I make this dish often; I have never really measured the ingredients, but can give you a reasonable approximation. Note: Freeze leftover cooking liquid, and then add to bean soup, ham or cabbage dishes, or use to cook dumplings in. It's delicious!

NEW POTATOES, GREEN BEANS AND HAM



New Potatoes, Green Beans and Ham image

This recipe was given to me by my Mother-in-law who raised 9 children and taught school for 40 years and didn't have much time to cook. It remains a family favorite with my children. Last night I had no broth, so I mixed Lipton's Garlic and Herb soup (1 packet) and 4 cups of water and it was wonderful, really added richness to the broth.

8 red potatoes, scrubbed and halved
1 (16 ounce) package frozen green beans (or fresh)
1 large onion, cut into about eight wedges

salt and pepper

  • I cook this in a crockpot all day, but may be cooked in a dutch oven on the stove, also.

  • If cooking on the stove you may need more broth, but the crockpot makes broth as it cooks, so you shouldn't need any more.
  • Use your own judgement on the amount of broth.
  • Serve with fresh, sliced tomatoes and corn bread for a great Southern meal.

SOUTHERN GREEN BEANS, HAM & POTATOES



Southern Green Beans, Ham & Potatoes image

I love homemade ham & green beans with potatoes, served with a skillet of cornbread and sweet tea! For this recipe, I took two "soul-food" recipes I had and combined them to come up with this one. It's just the way I like it. You can adjust the amounts of ingredients to your own taste. If I use ham hocks, I usually only add one or two slices of bacon for added flavor, just because I like bacon flavor. But if I don't have ham hocks, I use 4- 6 slices of bacon.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
  • Trim the green beans properly: Cut off the ends of the beans, but leave the strings intact. This will help the beans cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the green beans: Green beans should be cooked until they are tender but still slightly crunchy. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to green beans, you can add other vegetables to this dish, such as potatoes, carrots, or corn.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice for a bit of acidity.

Conclusion:

Southern green beans and new potatoes with ham is a classic Southern dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of tender green beans, new potatoes, and smoky ham is simply irresistible. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. Serve it as a side dish or as a main course with a side of cornbread or biscuits.
