Ingredients
  • 3 chopped onions
  • 3/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 lbs green beans washed and stemmed
  • 5 sliced potatoes peeled or unpeeled your choice
  • cumin
  • allspice
  • salt
  • pepper
  • large can whole tomatoes in juice
  • 1/2 cup water, or maybe a bit more

Directions
  1. I do these in a large deep covered pan
  2. Wash and stem beans, fry the chopped onion in the oil until light brown.
  3. Add the green beans to onions and stir.
  4. Now add salt and pepper to taste, tablespoon of cumin, can be whole or ground, a tablespoon of allspice, Stir and let mingle for a few minutes.
  5. Add can of whole tomatoes with juice, smush the tomatoes up a bit, add the 1/2 cup of water.
  6. Now layer the potatoes on top, repeat with the seasonings on each layer, not another tablespoon of the cumin and allspice, just sprinkle across the top of each layer.
  7. It might need a little more water at this point, just so the potatoes are covered.
  8. Put the lid on the pan and simmer till done, fork test the potatoes after twenty minutes.
  9. Then mix it all up and put it in a pretty bowl. Enjoy
