Instructions: Cut off ends of beans and wash in cold water. Cut in pieces or slice lengthwise (French style). Saute onions; add string beans and all ingredients. Add enough water (about 1 cup) to cook string beans.

NOTE: Other vegetables that can be prepared this way are fava beans, potatoes, okra, eggplant, chick peas. A combination of string beans, potatoes, carrots and celery makes a tasty one-dish meal.
