Green Beans Zeytinagli

Large, firm green beans or runner beans are perfect for this recipe. In Turkey, zeytinyaglis are generally served at room temperature, but are also great hot.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs green beans
  • 1 medium onion, sliced thin
  • 3 tomatoes, chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • 3 Tbsp tomato paste
  • Salt and ground pepper to taste
  • Aleppo pepper to taste
  • ¾ cup chicken stock or water
  • 3 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 small bunch parsley

Method

  1. 1

    Stem green beans and add to the pot with all other ingredients, except lemon and parsley. Stir well.

  2. 2

    Bring to a boil and reduce heat to very low. Cover and cook for 20 minutes. Remove lid and add lemon juice. Stir well and cook 10-15 minutes more, until green beans are very tender and the juice has reduced.

  3. 3

    Remove from heat and let stand at least an hour in the pot. Serve garnished with chopped parsley and Aleppo pepper.
