String Beans!

Never heard of it?

Think again! (Or just look at the picture below :) )

Ingredients:

250 gm String Beans

2 Tomatoes

2 Cloves of Garlic finely chopped

2 tbsp Soy sauce

2 tbsp Oil

Salt to Taste

Method:

• Cut the string beans into 6 cm long strips and boil them in bubbling salted water for 5 minutes and no more.
• While that is cooking, blanch the tomatoes in the same water and peel them and then make a puree.
• Strain the beans and put them into ice cold water immediately.
• Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan and saute the garlic and tomato until the tomato puree has lost its raw appeal.
• Add all the remaining ingredients to it and then cook covered for 6-8 minutes.
• Serve hot!
