Todays Lunch

Finally I have managed the photo thing with the help of my good friend Eva.
Lunch today was a very traditional affair......beans yakni
for 4 people
 1 kilo green beans
  cleaned and cut into pieces
  2 tins tomatoes
  garlic 1or 2 cloves
  2 potatoes peeeled and cut into cubes
  Chopped dill and parsley
  Teaspoon sugar
                                                                       Salt and pepper
                                                                       Extra virgin olive oil about 2 table
                                                                        spoons
  Method
  put everything in a casserole, bring to the boil and then simmer very slowly for about one and a half hours , until all the vegetables are tender, check seasoning and serve warm with feta cheese and crusty bread to mop up all the juices. Green beans cooked this way are a great match with feta cheese. If you fancy a glass of wine , anything made from the Greek grape varietyAssyrtiko is good as this variety can cope with the acidity of tomatoes really well.
