Serves: 4
 

Ingredients:

3/4 pound fresh green or yellow beans -- ends snipped
1/2 cup onion -- chopped
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
1 medium roma tomato -- peeled, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon fresh basil -- minced
1 dash sugar
1 teaspoon salt and white pepper
 

Preparation:

Parboil the beans in salted water until tender but not limp. Plunge into cold water to stop the cooking and drain. Set aside. In a small saucepan, cook the onion and garlic in the olive oil or butter over medium heat until soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add tomato, bail and a pinch of sugar. Cook, stirring often, until tomato softens and most of the liquid has evaporated. Season to taste with salt and pepper. About 5 minutes before serving, combine the beans and tomato mixture in a saucepan and reheat.
