Steps

1

Heat oil in large pan and add onions.
2

Add salt/pepper. Over medium heat, stir until onions become translucent.
3

Add chopped green beans, mix and cover for about 5 min. on low heat.
4

When green beans are tender (change in color also), add chopped tomatoes. Mix and cover for another 5 min.
5

Add tomato paste and sugar. At this point if the tomatoes have not released enough liquid, you can add 3 tbs. There should not be too much liquid.
6

Cover and simmer for a final 2 min. Green beans should be tender, tomatoes should be saucy. Enjoy at room temp. or cold. Tastes even better the second day. Serve with pita bread.
