Instructions
- With thin, very young green beans, merely cut them in 2-inch pieces. If the beans are thicker and with more fiber, first cut them in half lengthwise and then in 2-inch pieces.
- In a thick, low pot with a lid, sauté the diced onions in the olive oil until it begins to brown. Add the cut green beans, diced potato, chopped tomatoes, and water. Cover the pot and cook over the lowest heat possible, mixing from time to time until all is cooked (approximately 20 minutes). Add the chochos or lupini beans and cooked until they are heated.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Then stir in the minced herbs you have chosen.
- Can be served warm or room temperature.
