Liz Kizar: Turkish green beans

I make this for family parties as a side dish but always enjoy any leftovers for lunch...

Ingredients

2lb fresh green beans
2 medium onions
3 medium-large tomatoes
1 cup olive Oil
½ tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar

Method

Wash the green beans and cut to a size of your liking. Quarter the onions and add them to the beans. Peel the skin from the tomatoes, cut in half and remove the seeds before cutting into chunks.

Combine in a large pot, cover with water to about half of ingredients. Add the olive oil, salt and sugar, and stir.

Bring to a slight boil, then reduce to simmer, cover and cook for about 35 minutes.
