Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (16 ounce) package frozen cut green beans
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
salt to taste
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Place the green beans into a large pot, and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt to taste, and put the lid on the pot. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until beans are cooked to your desired doneness. Syrians like it cooked until the green beans are turning brownish in color. The idea is not to saute them, but to let them steam in the moisture released by the ice crystals.
  • Add cilantro and garlic to the beans, and continue to cook just until the cilantro has started to wilt. Eat as a main course by scooping up with warm pita bread or serve as a side dish.

Braised Green Beans with Tomatoes and Cilantro image

Summer tomatoes are a thing of beauty, but what if you're wanting to take a (short) break from all those caprese salads? Try this Spanish-inspired-side that braises chopped fresh tomatoes alongside sturdy romano beans; the tomatoes bring a welcome burst of acidity and a touch of sweetness to the final dish.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegan Recipes

Time 45m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
4 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
2 large tomatoes, coarsely chopped (3 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds Romano or green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces (7 cups)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro, plus more leaves for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high. Add oil and garlic; cook until fragrant and sizzling, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until they begin to break down, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in beans and cilantro; bring to a simmer, then cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Season to taste and serve, drizzled with more oil and sprinkled with cilantro leaves.

Tips:

  • When choosing green beans, look for ones that are bright green and crisp.
  • To prepare the green beans, trim the ends and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
  • You can use fresh or frozen cilantro in this recipe. If using fresh cilantro, chop it finely.
