String Beans
String Beans
2 cups fresh green beans (ends cut off and washed) (or frozen green beans may be used)
1 potato
1 ham hock (turkey neck may be used)
Salt/pepper
1 tsp. Red pepper flakes (or to taste)
1/2 tsp. garlic (minced)
1 tsp. onion powder
Bring a pot filled half-way with water to a boil. Add the ham hock and cook until you can stick a fork in it (seasons the water). Turn heat down to medium heat and add in string beans, potato, salt/pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic and onion powder. Cook until a fork can be stuck in the potato and string beans, about 30-40 minutes. Remove from heat and drain excess water from the pot. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Smile and serve
*Johnna’s tip: Instead of using onion powder, slice 1 small onion and add to the pot with the string beans. This adds a nice flavor and treat for true onion lovers.
