This dish is a bit of a winner to put on the table along with a farmhouse loaf and some cheese. It’s so flavoursome and a really wonderful way of cooking those slightly larger french beans that got picked late!
Ingredients
1-2 handfuls French beans, cut into inch long pieces
1 medium onion, sliced
250g fresh tomatoes, chopped (or 1 tin chopped tomatoes)
2 garlic cloves
Handful basil leaves, chopped
Glug of olive oil
Half tsp balsamic vinegar
Method
Add oil to a non-stick saucepan. Sweat the onions on a medium heat for 3-4 minutes until soft & beginning to turn golden
Add the beans & garlic and cook for 2 minutes
Add the tomatoes. Turn the heat low, cover the pan and simmer for 45 minutes.
