What a flavorful vegetable dish. I cooked for less time as I like my green beans crunchy.

After reading reviews, this is what I did. Omitted the cup of water, sauce thickened nicely. Sauted 1 small sliced onion and 1 cup of sliced mushrooms in 1/4 cup of oil and added to the simmering sauce with 2 teasp. of minced garlic. Let simmer 1/2 hr., then added 3/4 lb. of fresh green beans and simmered about another 20 min. We like our veggies with a bit of crunch to them. Delicious.

I could eat it but it was very bland. It was straight tomatoes. I don't know what flavors exactly it was lacking for me, but it was something. Guess it just wasn't the flavor I was going for.

This was great! I only used about 2 teaspoons of olive oil to saute the onion in. The amount called for in the recipe was just way too much. Then instead of water, I used chicken broth. I also probably used 1/4 more liquid than the recipe called for. Instead of tomato paste and canned tomatoes, I used two vine-ripened tomatoes. This recipe was delicious. It tasted just like what they serve at a local Greek restaurant. I'll definately make it again.

This is a great recipe! I added a clove of garlic and a little cayenne pepper and used fresh parsley from the garden. This went great with our grilled chicken.

I have been searching for this recipe for quite some time! I once tried a similar dish at a Greek Fair and I was forever hooked. The beans are so flavorful and they practically melt in your mouth. Yum!

it was really easy to make but i usually like my green beans on the crunchy side so simmering for 45 minutes was way too long for my taste. however, the sauce was really nice and i added some crushed red pepper flakes to give it a kick. not sure if the sauce would have been as mellow and sweet if i didn't simmer for 45 minutes. maybe next time i will simmer the sauce first and add the green beans in the last 15 minutes or so. the sauce never thickened.

Very nice...I added a pinch of sugar to the sauce and extra lemon juice after it was done. Served with rice, it hit the spot.
