What is Dry Green Beans with Beef?
Dry Green Beans with Beef is a Turkish-style home-cooked stew of fresh green beans and pieces of beef, often cooked with onion and tomato. “Dry” refers to the cooking method, not dried beans: the ingredients simmer covered with little or no added water, releasing their own juices.
The beans turn tender while keeping some shape, and the beef makes the dish hearty. In Turkey it is commonly served as part of lunch or dinner, with rice, bread or yoghurt; elsewhere, it also works well as a simple one-pot meal. It offers protein alongside vegetables and fibre, with 9.4 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter version, use a lean cut of beef and keep the added oil modest.
