Fasolakia (Greek Green Beans)

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

"Fasolakia are Greek green beans stewed with olive oil and tomato, with a few pieces of potato added for good measure," says Diana Moutsopoulos. "This is a main dish in Greece, not a side dish, and a prime example of plant-based eating! Good crusty bread is essential for mopping up the sauce and I always need to have a healthy chunk of feta on the side. Serve fasolakia warm or at room temperature for best flavor."
