Since my
dear wife Jessy is a bean lover, and I am a tomato lover : as usual
we make the best out of both worlds.
So we found this fast, easy and delicious side-dish.
Always add tomatoes or tomato-sauce wherever you can : its good for the heart, keeps your skin young and keeps your memory up to date!
INGREDIENTS
- 6 to 7 oz (200gr) green beans or French beans
- 1 medium red onion, sliced into wedges
- 1 tomato, cut in 8 pieces (see picture)
- 1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
- Heat the oil and add garlic, onions and beans. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes.
- Add vinegar, cumin, tomato, salt and fresh pepper and stir-fry 2 minutes longer. Be careful not to over-cook the beans, make sure they don't look like wrinkled paper.
