2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 1/2 pounds of lean lamb cut into small cubes or beef stew meat
Water
2 pounds trimmed green beans or pole beans
1-pound, 12 ounce-can tomatoes, undrained and chopped

Heat oil in large, heavy saucepan. Saute onion in oil until limp and transparent. Add lamb or beef cubes and saut� until meat is brown.
Add water to cover meat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered until meat is tender, about 1 hour.
Stir in beans, tomatoes and their juice, tomato sauce, water and seasonings.
Mix together very well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until the beans are tender and the sauce is thick.
I serve this over rice for a great one-dish meal.
