Wash the fresh shelled beans and sort out the large shelled grains.
Dice the onion and grate the tomatoes.
Soften the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and stir for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the beans, tomatoes, hot water, salt, black pepper, and sugar.
Close the pot and cook the beans for 32 minutes, until tender.
Open the lid and thicken the sauce for 5 minutes, then serve with cornbread.
💡 Tip: Do not leave the fresh beans too large, if the shelled beans do not soften quickly they need more water before the sauce thickens.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm or hot with cornbread and yogurt for a simple meal.
