Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a nonstick skillet, brown meat for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Drain any excess fat. Place meat in a bowl & set aside.
Step 2
Using the same skillet, saute the onions in olive oil until soft and slightly brown
Step 3
Return the meat to the skillet with the onions. Add salt, pepper, allspice, basil, oregano, and garlic. Cover & cook 10 more minutes.
Step 4
In a large pot, add the green beans. Pour the canned tomatoes, and the diluted tomato paste over the green beans; stir.
Step 5
Add the meat mixture to the green beans. Mix together.
Step 6
Bring to a gentle boil, then cover and simmer for 1 hour, or until beans are tender. Add a little more water or stock, as needed. Serve with rice.
Step 7
SPECIAL NOTE: The Fassoulia tastes even better the next day, after the flavors have a chance to intensify. Oh yes, a loaf of crusty bread goes great with this, too! NOTE: If making this without meat, this dish can be served cold or at room temperature.
