Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make vegetable stew with string beans? Prepare the products. To prepare the dish, take string beans and any set of vegetables that can be found in the refrigerator. Both fresh and frozen vegetables are suitable. Pre-wash and clean fresh vegetables, and remove frozen ones from the freezer. It is not necessary to defrost them — this will happen during the cooking process.
Step 2:
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Cut all the vegetables into approximately the same pieces and put them in a frying pan in the following order: first onions, then carrots, potatoes, pumpkin and celery, put the bean pods last. I used frozen beans and pumpkin. Fry everything until half cooked over low heat, stirring.
Step 3:
Prepare the dressing. Cut the cucumber into small thin strips.
Step 4:
Add finely chopped tomato and crushed with the back of a knife and finely chopped garlic.
Step 5:
Fill the dish with the prepared ingredients, add salt and mix. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat to low and put out the stew for about 10 minutes. The vegetables will have to become soft, and the pumpkin will be slightly or completely boiled, enveloping all the components with its sweetness and linking them together.
Step 6:
The dish is ready. Serve it sprinkled with herbs as an independent lunch or as a side dish. Bon appetit!
Root vegetables are best washed with a brush or a hard sponge under running water.
Important! An incorrectly selected frying pan can ruin even the best recipe. All the details on how to choose the perfect frying pan for different dishes read here .
Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
