Authentic Greek Fasolakia | Green Beans and Potatoes

Authentic Greek Fasolakia is a family favourite and can easily be adjusted to add chicken, beef, or pork!

Recipe: https://yiamaswithyiayia.ca/2022/03/fasolakia/
Ingredients
¼ cup olive oil
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 lbs green beans, washed and ends trimmed
1 large can whole tomatoes
4-5 russet potatoes, peeled and sliced into wedges
3 tbsp salt
1 bunch of fresh dill, chopped

Instructions
In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and let it heat up.

Add the chopped onion and sauté them until they’re translucent.

Add the green beans and the potatoes.

Drain the can of tomatoes in a medium bowl, and using your hand or a potato masher, crush the tomatoes until they resemble more of a tomato sauce.

Add 2 ½ c of water to the pot, cover and let it cook over low-medium heat for 35 minutes.

Check the potatoes and the green beans and make sure they’re cooked through, then add the salt (1 tbsp at a time and check for flavour).

Once it is seasoned to your liking, add the dill.

Serve with your favourite bread and enjoy!

To add protein
Sautee the meat of your choice in a large pan with olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook on medium-high until the outside gets crispy and golden.

This works great with chicken legs, breasts, or pork chops. Once they have been flipped once and each side is golden brown (about 3-4 minutes on each side), add the meat to the pot of Fasolakia before you leave it to cook and add an additional cup of water to the large pot.

Cook as you would the regular Fasolakia and once the beans and potatoes are tender, check the meat to make sure it’s cooked through then serve and enjoy!
