1/4 tsp ground black pepper
4 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice

Here is how you make Green Bean Koresh (stew):

Makes about 6 servings, give or takeBrown meat and onions in 1 tbsp of the oil.Add salt, pepper, turmeric and cinnamon and cook for a minute or so. Add the water, cover, and simmer on low heat for 45 min, stirring on occasion.Sautee the green beans briefly in the remaining 1tbsp of oil and add to the pot. Stir in tomato paste, sliced tomato and lime juice, cover, and simmer on low heat another hour to hour and 15 min. Serve hot over warm basmati rice and enjoy an authentic Persian dish :)** Can also be made with lamb or with chicken breast. If using chicken breast cut the water down to 1.5 cups and simmer for only 20 min in the first step.** Can also use frozen or canned green beans, but I would skip the sautee step and cut the salt, especially if using canned. Also cut the final cook time to just long enough to heat the beans through or they will turn to mush!** You can easily cut the fat out by using a spray such as Smart Balance cooking spray in the browning and sautee steps but the flavor will be different.** And of course, add a punch of fiber by serving over brown rice instead of basmatiNumber of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SHANATAV.
