Bean Casserole

I will make this as a side or we will have it served on rice as a main.

This is a dish that you can add any vegetables you want and even meat but is very delicious as is.

  • 4. Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low-medium. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • 5. Stir in the green beans, cover again, and continue cooking for another 30 minutes.
  • 6. Remove the lid and cook uncovered for a further 10 minutes until the liquid has slightly reduced.
  • 7. Turn off the heat and let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving.

NOTE

1. If you are using meat in this recipe I use chuck steak cut into small pieces and added after the onion and garlic saute at step 1. Brown the meat before adding potatoes and then continue onto step 2

2. You can add other vegetables eg carrots, zucchini. Just add when you add the beans.
