Trim the fresh green beans, break them in half, and wash them.
Cook the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes until translucent.
Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 4 minutes.
Add the beans, salt, sugar, and 1 cup hot water.
Cook over low heat for 35 minutes until the beans are no longer firm but have not fallen apart, then serve at room temperature.
💡 Tip: Breaking the beans in half helps them catch the tomato sauce better.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve at room temperature with a drizzle of olive oil on top and lemon on the side.
