Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion -- coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons Tabil
1 tablespoon hot paprika
2 cups packed chopped flat-leaf parsley -- (1/2 pound)
2 cups packed thinly sliced spinach leaves -- (4 ounces)
1 1/2 pounds green beans
Salt
2 cups water
In a large enameled cast-iron casserole, heat the olive oil. Add the
onion, Tabil and paprika and cook over low heat, stirring, until fragrant,
about 4 minutes. Add the parsley, spinach, green beans and 1/2 teaspoon
salt. Cover and cook over low heat, stirring once or twice, until the
green beans start to soften, about 15 minutes. Add 1 cup of water, cover
and cook for 20 minutes. Add the remaining 1 cup of water, cover and
simmer until the beans are very tender, about 20 minutes longer. Season
with salt and serve.
Makes 6 servings
Make Ahead: The beans can be refrigerated overnight.
AuthorNote: This is a delicious simplification of Ftima Mahjoub's stew of
fresh favas and artichokes. Slow cooking the parsley, spinach and green
beans creates a meltingly tender texture.
