Loubieh Bi Zeit
Report
With green beans braised in olive oil, garlic and tomatoes, Loubieh Bi Zeit is a delicious Levantine meze that comes together from just a handful of basic ingredients.
Share:
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 280 grams onion (1 large onion, diced)
- 45 grams garlic (crushed)
- 2 teaspoons baharat (Lebanese seven spice mix)
- 320 grams romano beans (a.k.a. flat beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths)
- 260 grams ripe tomatoes (6 small tomatoes, chopped)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ½ teaspoon salt
- flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
- Add the olive oil onions and garlic to a pan and fry over medium heat until the onions are tender and starting to brown.
- Add the Baharat and fry for a few seconds to release its aroma before adding the Romano beans. Saute until the beans are a vibrant green.
- Add the tomatoes, tomato paste and salt and then cover the pan with a lid. Turn down the heat to medium-low and simmer until the beans are tender, stirring occasionally (about 25 minutes).
- When the beans are tender, remove the lid and turn up the heat to medium-high, allow any excess liquid to evaporate so that the sauce is nice and thick.
- Garnish the Loubieh Bi Zeit with flat-leaf parsley. You can serve it warm or at room temperature with pita bread.
Notes
- If you can't find Romano beans in your area, regular green beans will work as well.
