Steps:
- Wash and string the beans, but leave them whole.
- In a large, deep skillet, heat olive oil until hot.
- Add the onion and saute for about 5 minutes until it is tender, but not brown.
- Add the green beans.
- Cover the skillet.
- Cook for about 15 minutes or until the beans start to wilt.
- Coarsely chop two of the tomatoes (ONLY TWO).
- Add to the pan and cover again.
- Cook for another 15-20 minutes until the tomatoes have melted into a sauce.
- Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.
- If necessary add another one or two chopped tomatoes and continue cooking.
- You may need to add extra olive oil also as it contributes to the flavor.
- Cook until the beans are very tender.
- Trust me, crunchy does NOT work with this dish.
- Serve hot, cold, or at room temperature (the way Greeks do).
- If you can find good, creamy feta, crumble a good chunk into the beans before serving.
