INGREDIENTS
| 1 | lb | Green beans |
| 1 | Onion, chopped | |
| 2 | Chopped tomatoes | |
| 1 | t | Salt |
| 1/3 | c | Extra virgin olive oil |
| 3 1/2 | t | Sugar |
| 1/2-2 c water |
INSTRUCTIONS
Trim beans & cut into 3 pieces, wash & drain. Put onion & tomato into a heavy pan. Sprinkle with salt & rub in lightly with fingers. Stir in the beans, olive oil & sugar, mix well. Cover & cook for 15 minutes over medium heat. Stir occasionally. The beans will lose their colour & soften. When all the moisture has been absorbed, stir-fry the beans for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, cover & simmer for 40 to 50 minutes, till the beans are tender. Add more water if necessary, 1/2 cup at a time. When cooked, the dish should be very moist but not watery. Serve cold as part of a buffet. Ayla Esen Algar, "The Complete Book of Turkish Cooking" From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
