    Recipe Introduction


    Sauté Beans with Sage

    List of Ingredients




    1 lb (450 gr.) dry “cannellini” beans
    4-5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    2 garlic cloves, crushed whole
    5-6 sage leaves
    Salt and pepper
    4 oz. (115 gr.) fresh peeled ripe tomatoes, diced

    Recipe



    Clean and wash the beans the night before, place them in a container and cover
    with fresh water. Leave the beans in the water overnight. Drain the beans the
    next day when you are ready to cook.

    In a stockpot put water and beans and boil for about 20 minutes, or until the
    beans are tender. Drain the beans and reserve.

    Put in a skillet the extra-virgin olive oil and turn the heat to medium.

    Add garlic and sage and sauté until the garlic will start coloring to a very
    pale brown.

    Add the beans, salt and pepper. Sauté on low heat for about 2-3 minutes then add
    the tomatoes.

    Cook uncovered on low heat for about 20 minutes, or until the beans are tender
    and the sauce thicker.

    Stir occasionally adding a small quantity of water if necessary.

    Serves 4.
