Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb green beans, trimmed, washed, drained, and cut into thirds
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped
1 tsp salt
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 1/2 tsp sugar
1/2 cup water (or more )

Directions:

Place onions and tomatoes in a saucepan. Sprinkle with salt and stir gently. Add green beans, olive oil and sugar; stir. Cover and cook over medium low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes until beans are softened. Once the liquid has been absorbed, stir fry a couple of minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, cover, and simmer 40 minutes until beans are tender. The beans will be moist, but not watery.
Serve cold or room temperature.
