MEATLESS MOUNTAIN GREEN BEANS WITH POTATOES



Meatless Mountain Green Beans with Potatoes image

In the southern Appalachian Mountains, green beans were cooked at the back of the stove in a bacon-seasoned broth with new potatoes added in the final part of the long, slow process. The result is a vegetable dish so imbued with meaty flavor that it was regularly served as the main part of an otherwise meatless meal with slaw, fresh tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, raw onion and cornbread. Here the meaty flavor in this vegetarian green bean recipe is created without pork by using smoked Spanish paprika and olive oil. Look for smoked paprika with other spices in well-stocked supermarkets.

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds green beans, trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 8 cups)
4 cups water, or as needed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons smoked Spanish paprika, mild or sweet, plus more to taste
1 ½ teaspoons salt
16 baby or new potatoes (about golf ball size), rinsed but not peeled

Steps:

  • Place beans in a large pot or Dutch oven. Pour in enough water to just barely cover the beans. Add oil, paprika and salt; gently stir to combine. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a lively simmer, cover and cook until the beans are tender, about 1 hour. (Check the pot occasionally and add water a little bit at a time if the beans are in danger of cooking dry.) Taste the bean broth and stir in additional paprika, if desired, for a "meatier" taste, but do so in small increments; too much can impart a bitter taste.
  • Place potatoes on top of the beans and push down into the broth. Return to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the potatoes are very tender, 20 to 30 minutes more.

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 -10 baby red potatoes, cut in half
8 -10 baby white potatoes, cut in half
1 lb fresh green beans, cleaned and cut in two pieces
1/4 cup butter, melted if desired
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt

Steps:

  • Cook the unpeeled potatoes and green beans separately in salted water 'til slightly fork-tender. I use the microwave. Or you can steam them. The green beans cook faster than the potatoes will.
  • Drain well and let set in the cooking pan with a lid on for about 4 minutes.
  • Pour the potatoes and beans into a large bowl.
  • To the potatoes, add the butter and sea salt and gently toss together.
  • Pile into a serving bowl and serve.
  • OPTION: Sprinkle with grated Parmasan cheese or crispy, crumbled bacon.
