Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion
- 3 medium garlic cloves
- 3 medium potatoes
- 300 grams green beans
- 2 medium zucchini
- 400 grams crushed tomatoes
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic. Add both to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
Peel and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Trim the ends of the green beans and cut them in half, if necessary. Slice the zucchini into half-moons about 1/2-inch thick.
Add the potatoes to the pot and stir well to coat them in the oil and onion mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the green beans and zucchini to the pot, followed by the crushed tomatoes, water, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 35-40 minutes, or until the potatoes and green beans are tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Serve warm, ideally with crusty bread or a side of feta cheese for a complete meal.
