Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 Wash & tail beans.
Step #2 Please note that you could use more; the quantity doesn't matter.
Step #3 If you're cooking for more than 4 people, use a lb of beans & maybe 2 potatoes.
Step #4 Holding together a little heap of about 6 - 8 beans at a time, chop them crosswise into thin rounds.
Step #5 Carry on until all the beans have been cut.
Step #6 Put in a pot, & slice the peeled potato over the beans.
Step #7 Peel the onion, slice, & add to pot.
Step #8 You don't have to mix the vegetables.
Step #9 Add about 1/3 c water & the sugar.
Step #10 Bring to the boil, lower heat, put lid on, & let the whole lot simmer until everything is very soft.
Step #11 Using one of those utensils (name?)which you use to mash any vegetable roughly, mash the beans, potato & onion until it is mushy.
Step #12 If there is too much liquid in the pot, drain off carefully.
Step #13 Spice up with salt, white pepper & nutmeg.
Step #14 Of course you could use black pepper instead.
Step #15 People like adding a good knob of butter: I usually do not because it's hardly necessary.
Step #16 Serve as a side dish.
