Picture

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes


​1-2 tablespoons olive oil
3 green onions, white portion only, thinly sliced
½ pound ripe fresh tomatoes, peeled, seeded, diced, or 1 can plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped with juices
1 small dried red chili (optional)
1 lb. romano beans, ends trimmed
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley

Add the tomatoes and chili, increase the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes reduce slightly, about 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in the beans and season with salt and a few grinds of pepper. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the beans are very tender, about 30 minutes. Check frequently and add 2 Tbs. hot water if the sauce looks dry. (The dish can be prepared up to this point, cooled, covered and refrigerated, and then reheated gently the next day.
