Ingredients

2 cloves garlic, pressed

1 1/2 cup green/snap beans 150 g
1 carrots, cut into 1,5 cm dices 100 g
2 zucchini, cut into 1,5 cm dices 260 g

2 tbsp olive oil 30 mL

Method

  1. Mince or press the garlic and chop the onion. Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook the garlic and onion 4-5 min until lightly coloured and soft, paying attention not to let them burn.
  2. Prepare the vegetables. Boil or steam the green beans. Drain, cut into 2 cm pieces, and set aside.
  3. Dice the remaining vegetables into 1,5 cm pieces and add to the saucepan with the garlic and onion. Sauté 4-5 min, then add the tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Cook over low heat, covered, 20-25 min until all vegetables are soft but still a bit al dente. Add the cooked green beans and cook an additional 2-3 min. Adjust the seasoning, then serve.
