Greek-Mediterranean preparation

Peel the potatoes and cook in lightly salted water as usual. Meanwhile, fry the washed and trimmed beans in a pan with 2 tablespoons of oil until tender. Puree the tomatoes. In a separate pot, sauté the onions and garlic in 1/2 cup of oil. Add the tomato puree and bring to a boil, then simmer for a few minutes. Season to taste with red wine, honey or sugar, salt, pepper, and herbs. Add the potatoes and beans and let stand for another 15-20 minutes. Season again before serving. Tip: This also tastes wonderful with crumbled feta cheese on top, making it vegetarian.
