 Categories: Side dish, Appetizers, Turkish
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      1 lb Green beans
      1 md Onion, chopped
      2 ea Chopped tomatoes
      1 ts Salt
    1/3 c  Extra virgin olive oil
  3 1/2 ts Sugar
           1/2-2 c water
 
  Trim beans & cut into 3 pieces, wash & drain.
  
  Put onion & tomato into a heavy pan.  Sprinkle with salt & rub in
  lightly with fingers.  Stir in the beans, olive oil & sugar, mix
  well. Cover & cook for 15 minutes over medium heat. Stir
  occasionally. The beans will lose their colour & soften.  When all
  the moisture has been absorbed, stir-fry the beans for 2 to 3
  minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, cover & simmer for 40 to 50 minutes, till
  the beans are tender.  Add more water if necessary, 1/2 cup at a
  time.  When cooked, the dish should be very moist but not watery.
  Serve cold as part of a buffet.
