FAGIOLINI AL POMODORO


A quick nutritious dish, great as a side dish or to be enjoyed even as a first course with fresh crusty bread.


INGREDIENTS:


1 pint of cherry tomatoes
1 or 2 cloves of garlic
about 1 lb of green beans or wax beans
olive oil
salt


Start by cleaning the beans: remove the stems at the ends and cut them in half if they are too long. Wash them thoroughly and give them a quick boil.

In the meanwhile, mince the garlic and  lightly sautée  it in olive oil. Add the cherry tomatoes cut in half. Sautée for 3 or 4  minutes. 

Drain the green beans and add them to the tomates, toss and add salt to taste. Cover with a lid and continue cooking on medium / low heat for about ten minutes.
