Steps
-
Step 1:
Place the green beans in a large pot and drizzle them with olive oil.
-
Step 2:
Season with salt to taste and cover the pot with a lid.
-
Step 3:
Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the beans reach your desired doneness; Syrians often cook them until they begin to turn brownish.
-
Step 4:
Do not sauté the beans; let them steam in the moisture released by the ice crystals.
-
Step 5:
Add the cilantro and garlic, then continue cooking just until the cilantro starts to wilt.
-
Step 6:
Serve as a main course with warm pita bread, or serve as a side dish.
