Green beans in olive oil (Loubye b zeit)
Posted on 06. Apr, 2008 by Bethany in Recipes
This is a very simple dish to make and one of my favorite ways to have green beans. The smell of this dish reminds me of my school days when I used to complain about having to eat this? How times change! We would have it with lamb shanks but I much prefer it without. You can enjoy this with Arabic bread and over rice if you like.
