Taze fasulye in sauce is one of the most familiar dishes of Turkish home cooking, normally simmered slowly with onion and tomato. This Bodrum tin saves that time: the can front reads 'Greenbeans in Sauce / Taze Fasulye' and 'ready to serve', and it carries a Halal mark, so the beans only need to be opened and warmed.
Tip the contents into a small pan and heat gently, or serve them at room temperature, as many Turkish families do with this kind of vegetable dish. They go well with plain rice or bulgur pilaf, crusty bread, a spoonful of yoghurt and a simple salad, and they make a quick vegetable side next to köfte, grilled chicken or fried fish. A squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of olive oil or some chilli flakes lift the flavour.
Store the closed tin in a cool, dry cupboard. Once opened, do not keep the contents in the tin; transfer them to a covered container, refrigerate and use within a day or two, or follow the instructions on the can. Please check the label for the exact ingredient list, nutrition and allergen information.
