- Heat onion and 1/2 cup oil (start from cold) in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, 10-12 minutes.

GIGANTES (GREEK LIMA BEANS)
This is a family recipe. In Greek, it's called 'Gigantes' which translates as 'Giants.' Try to find the largest dried lima beans possible. My aunt adds small canned sausages, but I prefer this meatless. Serve with feta cheese and a crusty bread. You can also substitute 2 teaspoons parsley for the dill if you prefer.
