INGREDIENTS 1tbsp extra virgin olive oil 500g green beans 250g minced beef (15% fat) medium size onion 25g tomato paste 1 tsp cayenne pepper [- I also add 2 tsp cumin powder nowadays] 1 tsp salt 200g canned crushed tomatoes 300g waxy potatoes 2-3 garlic cloves 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper [- add 1-2 big bay leaves for a deeper flavor profile] METHOD 1. Saute meat and onions for 3 minutes over medium heat 2. Add tomato paste and saute together for 1-2 minutes 3. Add salt and cayenne pepper, "wake it up" for 30 seconds 4. Add crushed tomatoes 200g and saute together 1 minute 5. Add green beans and saute for 5 min, mix every 2 minutes 6. Add chopped potatoes and finely sliced garlic and mix well 7. Pour in hot water and cover all vegetables 8. Cook till potatoes are cooked, around 20 minutes, mix occasionally and add water, if necessary 9. Final seasoning to taste with freshly ground black pepper and more salt, if needed 10. Turn off and let sit for at least 15 minutes, for the flavors to unite NOTES: Don't use mealy potatoes, as they become sandy and disturb the consistency of the stew Turks like their green beans rather soft, not crispy, even if that means, that it will lose its bright green color. Me personally prefer them in between, 30 min cooking max. Add a bit more water, if you wish and dip your freshly toasted bread into your green bean stew Bon appétit!
