Granny Green Beans

3-14.5 OZ CANS OF GREEN BEANS (DO NOT DRAIN)
1/8 CUP COOKING OIL
1 TBSP. GRANULATED SUGAR


​Add beans with juices to a medium saucepan. Add oil and sugar. Bring to a boil and boil until there is No Water in the bottom of the pot. When the water is almost gone the beanswill begin to sizzle and you need to stay in kitchen during last stage. The oil and sugar will then begin to caramelize in the bottom of the stock pot and form brown edges. Once this begins take them off element before they burn, but make sure and leave them on as long as you can. Smash them a little breaking them apart some. Put about 1/2 cup water in and deglaze the pot so the caramelization is in the beans not on the pot. Note: No salt, pepper or water needed. These take about 30 minutes cook.

NOTE: TO COOK ONE CAN, USE 1 TBSP OIL, AND 1 TSP. GRANULATED SUGAR.

3 Simple Ingredients Equals AMAZING green beans and you will impress your family and friends. They are sure to love this recipe! If you make these for a crowd use 2 large cans (at least) and double the recipe. Del Monte is my favorite, but Hanover is good too!

“The key to the right flavor is not how long you cook them; it is the oil and sugar and cooking down with no water to caramelize.” …Tammy
