My Spanish grandmother always made green beans this way for my Mum, and I think I can see why! 😋

Please note: in the images I make double the sauce so if you have a little less than me, that's because I ended up having too much and had to store some of the sauce and I made a pasta with it the day after.

Steps

40 minutes

1

Heat your oil in a pan or wok and begin to sauté the onions and garlic until they look a little transparent.
2

Next, add the tomatoes, cut into quarters, into the pan and cover for 10 minutes.
3

Now, Add your sugar to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes and cover for another 20 minutes. Whilst that is simmering, boil your green beans in a separate pot or pan.
4

You should also boil your potatoes around this time.
5

Finally, drain the potatoes and green beans and blend your sauce and combine in a large pan (I used the pan I boiled the green beans in) and then serve on a plate as a side or main. Enjoy!
