F2: Syrian Beans

Welcome again to Friday's Feast. Today I'll be sharing one of my recipes.

With inspirations from Mrs. Mackinac…

My wife makes this one a lot. We even have a friend of the family who is Assyrian who is familiar with this recipe… so it must be authentic. Serves 4-6.

Syrian Beans:

2 C Macaroni

3 C Water

½ lb of Ground Beef

½ Medium Yellow Onion

1 14.5 oz can of Whole Pealed Tomatoes

1 14.5 oz can of Green Beans

4 oz Cheddar Cheese

1. Into a medium sauce pan add the macaroni and water.
2. Bring to a boil, then turn down to low.
3. While the macaroni is cooking… add the ground beef to a large frying pan on medium heat.
4. Peel and chop the onions into small sized pieces and add to the meat.
5. Add the onions to the frying pan and continue to cook until transparent.
6. In a separate bowl, crush the tomatoes.
7. Add the tomatoes to the pan.
8. Drain then add the green beans.
9. Stir all the ingredients together for five minutes to guarantee they are well cooked.
10. Remove pan from the heat
    you can serve into a serving dish if you do not want to serve out of the pan.
11. Drain the macaroni and place into a separate bowl
    you can add butter or olive oil to keep them from sticking together if you like.
12. Shred the cheddar cheese into a separate bowl.
13. Serve by combining the macaroni with the contents of the pan and cover with cheddar cheese.
14. Enjoy
