It's called Lubee, a delicious stew made with green beans, tomato sauce, and beef. Lebanese Green Beans (Lubee) are a warm, spiced green bean dish mixing tomatoes, green beans, cinnamon and cumin. It has been some time now since I shared one of my Lebanese family recipes! Green beans are cooked in olive oil, hence the title 'b'zeit' and stewed in a basic tomato sauce.
Steps to make Lebanese green beans stew:
- Start with frying the meat cubes with the bay leaf, the cinnamon stick, and half teaspoon of black pepper
- DO NOT add the salt at this point. If you add salt the meat will release its water and dry out.
- Cook the meat until brown, then add the green beans, the chopped onion, and the salt. Cover and cook on low heat for 20 minutes.
- Check the beans after 10min and flip them a few times. But don’t mix with spoon because it will break the green beans 💔
- After 20 min, add warm (not boiling) water. Cover again and let it simmer for 30 minutes.
- Optional: fry the chopped coriander and garlic in a tablespoon of olive oil. (Those three ingredients together will release my favorite and the most amazing smell in the kitchen 😍😍😍)
- Add the fried corianger and garlic to the green beans stew 5 minutes before you turn the heat off. Remove the bay leaf and cinnamon stick.
- Serve with rice on the side and enjoy!
As it's a stew you should leave it to simmer on low heat so all the flavours melt together, but be careful not to overdo it as you don't want mushy beans. Middle Eastern food doesn't tend to favour leaving. Add the beans, sprinkle over the cumin and cayenne and mix well together. Whizz the tomatoes in a blender, then add the liquidized tomatoes to the pan; stir When the beans and potato are tender and tomatoes have reduced to a thick sauce, test for seasoning, adding salt and pepper as required; serve.
