Green beans in Tomato sauce.
Ingredients: 
(Ingredients approximate - simply adjust to requirements)
Bowl full of green beans, broken in half to help absorb the flavours.
Potatoes or courgettes can be added to bulk the recipe out if you wish.
Tin of tomatoes (or fresh tomatoes chopped when in season)
parsley, orange peel, garlic
Stock cube (If not using a lot of herbs or fresh tomatoes)
1 small glass red wine



Method
Fry onions as usual. Add garlic after a few minutes; then salt, pepper and oregano.
Add tomatoes, parsley, orange peel and the stock cube. 
Add the glass of wine and then the beans. ( and other veg if using)
Stir well to coat beans in sauce.
Add a little hot water if needed. Remember that some liquid will come out of the veg.

Cover and simmer for about 45 minutes. Test beans, potatoes etc with a toothpick to see if they are ready.

Serve with plain yogurt if wished
