I grew up with vegetables, meat or fish and fruits on the table for a meal. That is how my mother feed us, vegetables and protein to keep us healthy and strong. Now that I have a family of my own,it's my turn to serve my family a complete healthy meal as my mom does. One good thing about my children is that they loves to eat vegetables specially my 3 years old. If you ask him to choose between green salad and chicken, he surely will choose the first one.
Green Beans also called as string beans and snap beans are available all year round. Wash them thoroughly in water. Trimmed off the top only and leave the tail end. You can cut it at desired lengths or leave whole.
Cooking Procedures :
1. Boil water, add the green beans,blanch for 4-5 minutes until crisp tender. Drain and plunge into an ice cold water to stop the cooking process and retain its color. Remove from cold water and set aside.
2. Heat butter and oil together. Saute garlic and onion, add the green beans and the tomato. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add fresh basil(optional). Serve with hot.

I love green beans kaso mga kasama ko kasi sa bahay nirarayuma na di nila ma-enjoy, gusto ko din na laging magkatambal ang meat at veggies para balance
ReplyDeletei think the porkchop should come with gravy.
ReplyDeletealso, are the vegetables buttered or did you use margarine on it?
string beans (green) + carrots (orange) + corn (yellow) = a colorful vegetable platter.
i use butter and vegetable oil to sautee the ingredients. i also make buttered mixed veggies.

ReplyDeletebawal na beans sa bahay kc mirarayuma na c mother...
